JERUSALEM, Sept. 15 (Xinhua) — Some 300,000 people have fled Gaza City amid intense Israeli strikes, Israel Defense Forces Radio reported Sunday, citing security officials.

Gaza's Health Ministry said on Sunday that at least 68 Palestinians have been killed and 346 wounded in Israeli attacks over the past 24 hours, mostly in the northern Gaza Strip.

The strikes destroyed at least two multi-story buildings in Gaza City, including one belonging to the Islamic University that housed displaced persons. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz shared a video on social media showing the university building being bombed and collapsing.

The Israeli military confirmed it had hit two high-rise buildings, claiming Hamas was using them for intelligence gathering and surveillance.

Israel has said it plans to capture Gaza City, where about a million people lived and sheltered before the offensive, as part of its stated goals of eliminating Hamas and freeing nearly 50 hostages held by the group.

Since October 2023, Israeli military operations have killed more than 64,000 people in Gaza, according to Gaza health authorities, and much of the enclave has been reduced to rubble and starvation is spreading. –0–
