Sunday’s strikes — which took place in a camp where displaced Palestinians had been sheltering — come days after the U.N.’s top court ordered Israel to halt its operations in the city of Rafah in Gaza, citing the “immediate risk” to Palestinians. Over half of those killed were women, children and elderly people, local health officials said.
