Rafah:
Medics and first responders in Gaza said 16 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes in the southern city of Rafah on Sunday, hours after Hamas rockets killed three Israeli soldiers earlier in the day.
“The number of martyrs in Rafah reached 16,” the first responders told AFP, adding that seven people from one family and nine from the other were killed.
Medical sources confirmed that two strikes took place in two different locations in the city.
