Gaza death toll continues to rise as UN chief visits Rafah crossing
The Israeli army continued attacks on Hamas targets in Gaza and dozens more Palestinians were killed as UN chief António Guterres, on a visit to the Rafah border crossing on Saturday, once again demanded an "immediate humanitarian ceasefire."
The Israeli air force struck some 35 targets on Friday, including operational command centers, military posts and "the infrastructure of terrorist organizations," the military said on Saturday, claiming that dozens of enemy fighters had been killed in ground battle and airstrikes in the Gaza Strip over the past day.
