Israel’s military said a “technical error” had caused munition to land dozens of meters from its target. The victims were gathered near a water distribution point, health workers said.

At least 59 Palestinians, including children and people fetching water, were killed Sunday in a series of Israeli airstrikes targeting residential areas and displacement tents across the Gaza Strip, according to medical sources.

The Israeli military admitted that one of the reported deadly strikes had been caused by 'a technical malfunction in the munition', missing the intended target. View on euronews
