Gaza's Health Ministry gave this information on Sunday. Palestinian officials said that the city of Beit Lahiya was attacked throughout Saturday night and then again on Sunday.
Health officials have confirmed 87 deaths and 40 people being injured. Beit Lahiya is a neighboring city of Jabalia and Beit Hanun in northern Gaza.
All three cities are badly affected by Israeli attacks.
Health officials have said that the dead include two couples and their four children and a woman's son, daughter-in-law and their four children.
In the attack that continued throughout Saturday night, Israel targeted several houses and a multi-storey residential building. Due to the attack on the residential building, more than 100 people were buried under the rubble and there was such a large-scale loss of life.
There was no immediate comment from the Israeli army on the attacks in Beit Lahiya. However, the Israeli army has said that its army is continuing both air and ground operations in Gaza. It will continue these attacks until it completely destroys Hamas.
Relief and rescue agencies in Gaza have reported that help is not reaching people due to internet shutdown and debris on the roads.
Due to the siege of the Israeli army, common people have no access to essential items like food, water and medicine. This has further increased the humanitarian crisis.
According to the Gaza Health Ministry, more than 42 thousand people have died and one lakh people have been injured so far in the Israeli attacks that began in Gaza in October last year.
Most of the buildings in the Gaza Strip have turned into rubble. More than 10 lakh people have become homeless in the Gaza Strip in the last one year.
