The al-Awda hospital in Nuseirat reports that it has received 30 bodies, including 14 women and twelve children.

The Israeli military has not commented on the reports.

The reports of the air attacks in Nuseirat come at the same time as more and more organizations are warning of starvation in Gaza.

Israel has announced "tactical" local pauses in the fighting to open safe routes for aid to enter. During Monday, the UN and other organizations distributed more than 200 truckloads of supplies, according to Israel. An additional 260 trucks were allowed to cross into Gaza to deliver aid at collection points, according to AFP.

During the 21 months that the war has been raging since Hamas coordinated an attack on Israel in October 2023, 60,000 people have been killed in the war, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health, which is loyal to Hamas.

Women and children are reported to make up about half of the dead. However, the authorities do not break down the number of fatalities into civilians and combatants.
