STORYLINE:
Residents were assessing the damage on Saturday of an Israeli airstrike in central Gaza on Friday.
Al-Aqsa Martyrs hospital said the attack on a residential building in the Nuseirat refugee camp killed at least 30 people.
The targeted house was owned by Mohamed Khalifa, a TV journalist with a local television channel, who was killed in the strike along with seven family members, said his relative Belal Khalifa.
The rest were displaced people who sheltered in the house, he said.
Fifteen bodies were found after the strike, and first responders managed to retrieve 15 more as of Saturday noon, according to Khalifa.
Emergency workers were still searching for eight others missing under the rubble.
Israel declared war after Hamas gunmen stormed across the border on Oct. 7, killing some 1,200 people and taking some 240 hostages.
More than 20,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s war to destroy Hamas and more than 53,000 have been wounded, according to health officials in Gaza, a besieged territory ruled by the Islamic militant group for the past 16 years.
