An Israeli attack on Beit Lahiya, a town in northern Gaza, killed at least 73 Palestinians on Saturday evening, according to the enclave’s government media office.

More than 100 others were wounded and several people missing.

Israeli air strikes targeted a multi-floor building and damaged a number of nearby houses, medics in the Gaza Strip reported.

The government media office said that Israeli forces had bombed overcrowded residential areas in Beit Lahiya, adding that women and children were amongst the casualties.

      Yeah because there’s a lot of ghouls that celebrate the deaths of Israelis. There would be people dancing in the streets celebrating the deaths of Israeli civilians.

      When Palestinians die it’s a sad consequence of a war that rational people hope will end soon. And that’s dependent on what’s left of Hamas releasing hostages, which only they can choose to do.

      But sure, keep on believing you’re on the right side of things.
