Among the dead are nine members of the same family who were killed when Israel bombed the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza, reports AFP.
Six people were killed when a residence was hit in Beit Lahia in the north. Several people have also been killed in Gaza City and in similar attacks on other parts of the Gaza Strip.
On Friday, the Red Cross warns that the humanitarian situation in Gaza is on the brink of total collapse.
Two months have passed since Israel last allowed emergency aid into Gaza, including food, water, fuel, and medicine. According to Qatar-based Al Jazeera, at least 23 children have died of malnutrition and dehydration in recent weeks.
"The situation cannot – and must not – be allowed to escalate further," says the Red Cross's Pascal Hundt in a statement, according to AFP.
The UN's food program, WFP, reported last week that the food stocks had been depleted and that the 25 bakeries in Gaza supported by the organization had been forced to close due to a lack of flour and fuel.
