By Rushdi Abualouf at Al-Maghazi camp in Gaza & Kathryn Armstrong in London BBC News


The Hamas-run health ministry says at least 45 people have been killed in what it said was an Israeli air strike at the Al-Maghazi refugee camp.

Israel's military says it is looking into whether it was operating in the area at the time.

The small camp has been experiencing overcrowding because of people fleeing bombardments further north.

Efforts are under way to find those still missing. It is thought more than 100 people were there at the time.

The head of Gaza's Al-Aqsa hospital said 52 people were killed in the blast on Saturday night, slightly more than the number given by the health ministry.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The Hamas-run health ministry says at least 45 people have been killed in what it said was an Israeli air strike at the Al-Maghazi refugee camp.

The head of Gaza's Al-Aqsa hospital said 52 people were killed in the blast on Saturday night, slightly more than the number given by the health ministry.

Residents have been trying to dig with their hands through layers of cement in an attempt to extract those trapped under the rubble.

While there has been no official response yet, an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman told the BBC he was unable to confirm whether the camp was hit by an Israeli air strike.

"There is no safe place in Gaza," Muhammad, a civil defence officer who rushed to the scene of Saturday's strike to help, told the BBC.

"They ask the Palestinians to go to the south, but kill them everywhere - on the roads, in schools where people are sheltering, and even in hospitals."
