An Israeli airstrike on Sunday night targeted a tent camp for displaced Palestinians in Rafah, Gaza, resulting in a fire that killed at least 45 people, including women and children, and wounding another 200. The strike has drawn widespread international condemnation and calls for an investigation. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the incident as a 'tragic mistake' and pledged to investigate. Netanyahu also held urgent talks with Egypt following the incident. The attack occurred just days after the International Court of Justice ordered Israel to halt its offensive in Rafah. Additionally, another airstrike on Tuesday in the Al-Mawasi area west of Rafah killed more than 20 displaced civilians and injured dozens. The overall Palestinian death toll has now surpassed 36,000, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. The UN chief has also condemned the strike.
