Israel struck tents outside two major hospitals in the Gaza Strip overnight, killing at least two people, including a local reporter, and wounding nine, including six reporters, Palestinian medics said.
Separate strikes killed 15 others across the Strip, according to hospitals.

Israel has dramatically expanded its footprint in the Gaza Strip since relaunching its war against Hamas last month. It now controls more than 50% of the territory and is squeezing Palestinians into shrinking wedges of land.
The largest contiguous area the army controls is around the Gaza border, where the military has razed Palestinian homes, farmland and infrastructure to the point of uninhabitability, according to Israeli soldiers and rights groups. This military buffer zone has doubled in size in recent weeks.

Gaza's civil defense agency said Israeli strikes killed at least 44 people on Sunday as Israel's prime minister vowed a "strong response" to a rare salvo of rockets fired from the Hamas-ruled territory.

Talks on Monday between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. President Donald Trump are expected to be dominated by Washington's shock tariffs on Israel and escalating tensions with Iran.
Netanyahu becomes the first foreign leader to meet with Trump in the U.S. capital since the president unveiled sweeping levies on multiple countries in his "Liberation Day" announcement on Wednesday.

French President Emmanuel Macron has said he would hold a trilateral summit on the situation in Gaza with Egypt President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and Jordan's King Abdullah II.
Israel has pushed to seize territory in Gaza since the collapse of a short-lived truce in its war with Hamas, in what it has called a strategy to force the militants to free hostages still in captivity.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to travel to Washington to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump, discussing issues including tariffs and the "Iranian threat," his office said Saturday.
The meeting will take place on Monday, a White House official said on condition of anonymity.
