Israel has bombarded areas across Gaza this week, killing 646 Palestinians and injuring more than 3,400 between 16 and 23 July, according to records from the Ministry of Health in Gaza.
On 22 July, 15 Palestinians were killed and 50 were wounded when Israel targeted tents of displaced families in Beach refugee camp west of Gaza City.
The same day, another 15 Palestinians were killed, including six children, in an airstrike on a residential building in Beit Lahiya, in northern Gaza. The United Nations says that paramedics were also injured in that attack, and at least one ambulance was damaged, as the residential building is located near an ambulance station.
On 21 July, Israel bombed a kindergarten in al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza, in two successive strikes.
