Israeli strikes kill 66 Palestinians in central Gaza camp

At least 66 people have been killed in Israel’s bombing on central Gaza over the past 24 hours, Al Jazeera’s correspondent in Gaza has reported.

The central refugee camps of al-Bureij and Maghazi were the most affected, as Israeli forces claim to be hitting Hamas targets while ground troops operate “in a focused manner with guidance from intelligence” in the al-Bureij area.

This comes as US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan says they are "waiting for a response from Hamas" regarding ceasefire talks, with the Palestinian group asking for guarantees regarding a full ceasefire and Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.

In tech, former Meta employee Ferras Hamad is suing his employer for discrimination and wrongful termination, saying he was fired for trying to help fix bugs causing the suppression of Palestinian posts on Instagram.
