Reuters letters@hindustantimes.com CAIRO: An Israeli airstrike killed at least eight Palestinians in an apartment in Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza strip on Friday, medics said.
Palestinian health officials told Reuters that Israeli military strikes across the enclave had killed a total of 15 people on Friday.
Mediated ceasefire efforts have yet to secure a deal between Israel and the Islamist group Hamas after more than a year of conflict in the Gaza Strip.
On Thursday, sources close to the discussions, told Reuters that the Arab mediators, Qatar and Egypt, had been able to hammer out some differences but some sticking points remained unresolved and needed more discussion.
On Thursday, Gaza's civil defence agency said a series of Israeli strikes killed at least 30 Palestinians, with the Israeli military confirming it targeted Hamas militants in one attack.
