Palestinian media reported on Wednesday that heavy Israeli bombardment targeted the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, located in the southeastern part of Gaza City.
The strikes caused intense explosions in the area, though no immediate information was available on casualties or the extent of the damage.
A well-informed Egyptian source told Al-Qahera News that Egypt is intensifying its contacts with all parties in an effort to reach a truce, paving the way to end the war.
The Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, one of Gaza’s most densely populated districts, has been repeatedly hit during the ongoing Israeli military campaign, which has drawn widespread international concern over civilian safety.
