At least 120 people have been killed in Israeli military attacks in the Gaza Strip since Thursday night, according to Palestinian reports on Friday.

The Israeli military, when contacted, stated that it requires the precise geographic coordinates of the attacks to comment further, though such details are rarely available due to the widespread destruction.

The information from both sides could not be independently verified.

Palestinian medics told dpa that about 25 people were killed in northern Gaza, with an additional 20 fatalities reported in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central region.

Civil defence sources also reported 75 deaths in Beit Lahia, a town in northern Gaza. The figures do not distinguish between combatants and civilians.

The Gaza conflict began on October 7 last year when attackers from the Palestinian militant Islamist movement Hamas and other extremist groups based in Gaza carried out massacres in southern Israel, killing 1,200 people.

At least 44,000 people have been killed in Gaza since the war began, according to the Hamas-controlled health authority.
