Israeli airstrikes in southern Gaza have resulted in the deaths of at least 19 Palestinians, including eight children. This follows a series of attacks across the territory that have left a total of 51 dead in the past 24 hours. The Israeli military claims these strikes target Hamas fighters involved in the October 7 attack on Israel. Meanwhile, negotiations for a potential ceasefire and hostage release continue in Qatar, with the U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s envoy reporting progress.
