Nearly 100 killed, 130 wounded as Israel bombards Gaza's Rafah overnight
Gaza's southernmost city of Rafah has been hit by an intense bombing campaign overnight, with residents calling it one of their worst nights yet. Gaza's health authorities said nearly 100 people were killed and 130 more wounded in the last 24 hours, with most victims still trapped under rubble. Israel has threatened to launch a full-blown attack on Rafah, despite international pleas. The small border city is home to some 1.5 million Palestinians, many of whom were displaced due to the Israel-Hamas war. Sarah Coates reports from Tel Aviv.
