Israeli tanks in the heart of Rafah amid intense shelling of city - BBC News Rafah latest: Israeli tanks in the heart of southern Gaza city amid intense shelling - BBC News
(32 minutes later)
BBC Verify More Palestinians have fled temporary shelters in Rafah following airstrikes and tank fire by Israeli forces overnight.
By Peter Mwai and Paul Brown According to officials in Gaza, at least 16 people were killed.
BBC Verify is checking footage posted to
Palestinian social media channels showing signs of strikes in parts of
Rafah.
On Monday, footage emerged of two people lying
motionless on the street around 50 meters from the city's Kuwaiti hospital.
Media reports say that two people were killed in a drone strike at this spot.
We were able to identify the location using
landmarks such as a minaret belonging to a mosque directly
adjacent the hospital building. But we are yet to verify the cause of the incident.
Another clip posted overnight shows a small
column of smoke rising from the Indonesian field hospital - a distinctive
building located around a mile away from the site of Sunday night’s refugee
camp strike.
In a nearby area of the city, we have also seen
smoke rising close to the Taiba mosque - identifiable by distinctive
twin minarets.
There are also clips of people being brought into
hospitals.
We will continue to review footage to gain a
better understanding of the situation in Rafah.
