Four people were killed in an Israeli bombing of a hospital courtyard in central Gaza, another strike on a nearby school used as a shelter killed at least 20 people, and a drone strike killed five children playing on the street in al-Shati camp in Gaza City, according to local health authorities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Rights groups say Israel is seeking to forcibly expel the remaining population of northern <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/gaza\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\">Gaza<\/a> in a ferocious renewed campaign on the besieged Palestinian territory. The Israeli military said it was looking into the reports of civilian casualties in the three incidents on Sunday and Monday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The bombing in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/lebanon\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\">Lebanon<\/a> on Monday afternoon that struck Aitou, a Maronite village near the northern city of Tripoli, hit a small apartment building, killing 21 people according to the Lebanese Red Cross. Footage from the scene broadcast by Lebanese television channels showed a heavily damaged building, destroyed cars, and dead and injured people lying on the street as people dug through the rubble.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Aitou is far from Hezbollah\u2019s power centres in Beirut and the south and east of the country. The village\u2019s mayor, Joseph Trad, told Reuters that the building had been rented to families displaced by the war.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The strike was one of several over the past two weeks targeting areas thought to be \u201csafe\u201d, including the bombing of a displacement centre in the southern town of Wardaniyeh last week. Israel is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2024\/oct\/13\/unifil-israeli-tanks-lebanon-hezbollah-gaza-iran\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">also facing international criticism<\/a> for at least three violations that have injured five members of the UN peacekeeping mission in Lebanon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">On Monday, Italy, Britain, France and Germany released a joint statement condemning Israel for repeatedly attacking UN peacekeepers. \u201cThese attacks must stop immediately,\u201d they said, adding deliberate attacks were against international law.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Five peacekeepers have been wounded in attacks that struck their positions since Israel began a ground campaign against the Hezbollah militant group, with most blamed on Israeli forces. The EU foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, said: \u201cTheir work is very important. It\u2019s completely unacceptable attacking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/unitednations\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\">United Nations<\/a> troops.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">There was no immediate comment from the Israel Defense Forces or Hezbollah on the Aitou strike or its target. The IDF said it had targeted the head of the powerful Lebanese militia\u2019s anti-tank unit, Muhammad Kamel Naim, in a strike on Monday in the southern city of Nabatieh.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">On Monday evening, Hezbollah appeared to respond to the Aitou attack by firing a salvo of at least three rockets at Israel\u2019s commercial and diplomatic centre, Tel Aviv. Air raid sirens were triggered across vast swathes of central and northern Israel, but the attack was intercepted by Israel\u2019s air defence systems.<\/p>\n<figure
