Israel’s air and ground war has destroyed vast areas of Gaza and driven some 90% of the population from their homes. Aid groups say they have struggled to bring in food and other assistance because of Israeli military restrictions and the breakdown of law and order, and experts have warned of famine.

The Israeli military says it only targets militants and tries to avoid harming civilians and blames civilian deaths on Hamas because the militants operate in densely populated areas.

Ten people, including children, were killed in a strike at a water collection point in central Gaza, according to health officials. Israel is investigating the incident.
