About 20 people, including nine children, were killed on Monday in an Israeli airstrike on the northern Gaza Strip, according to the Health Ministry in Gaza.

An Israeli drone fired missiles at a group of people east of Beit Hanoun, killing 20, WAFA news agency reported. In addition, 65 others were injured, three of them are in critical situation.

Ambulances rushed to the site and transferred the dead and injured to hospital.

On the other hand, more than 334 Palestinians were injured in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque, as the Israeli occupation forces stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque squares, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent.

Meanwhile, warning sirens sounded after rockets were fired towards the occupied territories.

Tensions have flared since Israeli police started a crackdown on Palestinian worshippers last Friday of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan.
