   At least six Palestinian civilians have been killed in an Israeli air raid on Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighbourhood, with three more bodies recovered from a bombed house in the al-Mina neighbourhood of the northern city.

    In central Gaza, Israel has killed at least six people in a bombing of a home in the town of az-Zawayda, near Deir el-Balah.

    In the south, the bodies of three handcuffed Palestinians have been recovered east of Rafah, according to Al Jazeera’s team on the ground.

    Dead and wounded Palestinians swamp Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza after an Israeli attack on the Nuseirat refugee camp killed 16 people and injured 75 others.

    Israeli activists stage “a day of disruption” to mark nine months since Hamas’s October 7 attacks, putting pressure on their government to call for elections as well as return Israeli captives from Gaza.

    At least 38,153 people have been killed and 87,828 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza since October 7. The death toll in Israel from the Hamas-led attacks is estimated at 1,139, with dozens of people still held captive in Gaza.

    Hezbollah strikes another Israeli army site

    We are receiving updates on the Hezbollah-Israeli tensions.

    The Lebanese group says it struck Israel’s al-Baghdadi military site with missiles and achieved “a direct hit”, without elaborating on the results.

    Earlier, Hezbollah said its fighters bombed Israel’s Nimra military base, west of Tiberias, with dozens of Katyusha rockets.

    Hezbollah’s strikes come after Israel’s army carried out artillery attacks on areas on the outskirts of the towns of Yaroun and Maroun al-Ras in southern Lebanon, according to an Al Jazeera correspondent.
