The Israeli military says it missed its intended target after Gaza officials said 10 Palestinians - including six children - were killed in a strike at a water collection point.

Another 17 people were wounded in the strike on a water distribution point in Nuseirat refugee camp, said Ahmed Abu Saifan, an emergency physician at Al Awda Hospital.

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said it had intended to hit an Islamic Jihad militant but a "technical error with the munition" had caused the missile to fall "dozens of metres from the target".

The IDF said the incident is under review, adding that it "works to mitigate harm to uninvolved civilians as much as possible" and "regrets any harm to uninvolved civilians".

Officials at Al Awda Hospital said it received 10 bodies after the Israeli strike on the water collection point and six children were among the dead.

Ramadan Nassar, who lives in the area, said around 20 children and 14 adults were lined up Sunday morning to fill up water.

When the strike occurred, everyone ran and some, including those who were severely injured, fell to the ground, he said.

At least 32 people were killed in Israeli strikes in the Gaza Strip on Sunday, local health officials said.

Two women and three children were among nine killed after an Israeli strike on a home in the central town of Zawaida, officials at Al Aqsa Martyrs Hospital said.

Israel has claimed it hit more than 150 targets in the besieged enclave in the past day.

The latest strikes come after the Israel military opened fire near an aid centre in Rafah on Saturday. The Red Cross said 31 people were killed.

The IDF has said it fired "warning shots" near the aid distribution site but it was "not aware of injured individuals" as a result.

Casualties rise as ceasefire talks falter Alex Rossi International correspondent @alexrossiSKY A father carried the body of his young son through the streets of the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, his surviving child beside him. The boy was one of at least 10 people killed when an Israeli airstrike hit civilians gathering water. At Al Awda Hospital, emergency rooms are overwhelmed, and the dead lie in corridors. The Israeli military says the strike was a technical error, claiming it had been targeting a militant from Islamic Jihad. Hours later, another strike hit the busy Samar Junction market in Gaza City, killing several, including Dr Ahmed Qandil, a surgeon en route to work at the Baptist Hospital. As civilian casualties rise, ceasefire negotiations in Doha are faltering. Palestinian and Israeli sources say the talks are stalled over withdrawal terms. Hamas has rejected Israeli maps that would leave 40% of Gaza under Israeli control. The group demands a return to lines held during the last truce. Disagreements also persist over humanitarian aid and a permanent end to the war. The US-backed plan envisions a 60-day truce and phased hostage releases - but with divisions deepening, a deal remains elusive.

The war in Gaza started in response to Hamas's attack on Israel on 7 October 2023, which killed 1,200 people and saw about 250 taken hostage.

More than 58,000 Palestinians have since been killed, with more than half being women and children, according to Gaza's health ministry, which does not distinguish between civilians and combatants in its count.

US President Donald Trump has said he is closing in on another ceasefire agreement that would see more hostages released and potentially wind down the war.

But after two days of talks this week with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, there were no signs of a breakthrough, as a new sticking point emerged over the deployment of Israeli troops during the truce.

Hamas still holds 50 hostages, with fewer than half of them believed to be alive, after most of the rest were released in ceasefire agreements or other deals.

well, at least this isnt the same time loop new story of thirty people being killed at food distribution site in Gaza--except it was a DIFFRENT group of thirty people killed EACH day.

after days of these news articles, i find that i'm not desensitived to these tragic losses of life, but i've now grown to lose all respect for the supporters of this war. Yes, you have right to defend yourself but if you can't recognize what the cost is, your own humanity, you are to become just as evil as what you sought to fight against.

Absolutely bad look for Israel and the IDF here. Somehow this has to end. No winners here anymore, if there ever was going to be.
