It has been reported that 19 Palestinians were killed and dozens injured when the Israeli army launched airstrikes against a family in Gaza City, Al Buraj refugee camp in Gaza Strip and Rafah city in the south.

After an Israeli warplane targeted a house in the northwestern part of Gaza City  Medical sources said that they died along with six children and others were injured. 

According to local sources, a large number of people were attacked after the bomb hit a residential house in the northwest of Gaza City by an Israeli warplane. Another airstrike on a house behind the Salah al-Din mosque in al-Zaytun, in the southeastern part of Gaza City, also injured people.  

Meanwhile, more than a hundred aid organizations warned on Wednesday of "mass starvation" in Gaza ahead of a trip to Europe by the US top envoy for possible ceasefire and aid talks.

Israel is facing increasing international pressure over the humanitarian situation in the Palestinian territories. More than two million people are facing a shortage of essential items, including food, in the protracted conflict that began with Hamas attacks in Israel. 

According to the UN, more than 1,000 Palestinians seeking food aid have been killed by Israeli forces since the United States and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation began work at the end of May.

In a joint statement issued by 111 signatories, including Doctors Without Borders (MSF), Save the Children and Oxfam, colleagues and services are facing challenges. The statement called for an immediate negotiated ceasefire, the opening of all border crossings and the free flow of aid through UN-led mechanisms.

The warning came a day after the United States said its envoy, Steve Witkoff, would travel to Europe this week for talks on Gaza and then visit the Middle East.

State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce said she came with strong hopes for another cease-fire as well as a humanitarian corridor for the flow of aid.
