Six United Nations workers and several others were killed in an Israeli air strike on a school compound sheltering hundreds of displaced Palestinians in central Gaza.

The Gaza Government Press office reports the total to be 18, while officials from Awda and al-Aqsa Martyrs hospitals said at least 14 people were killed.

People were seen collecting body parts in plastic bags. Local media reported at least 22 people were also injured.

At least 220 UNRWA staff have been killed so far in the conflict, according to the UN.

Mr Deere said the IDF knows the GPS locations of every UNRWA facility, which are updated daily, and all movements are coordinated with them.

In short:

At least 40 people have died after a tent camp in Khan Younis was struck by Israeli fire, leaving craters as deep as 9 metres, according to the Gazan civil emergency service.

The camp is in the designated humanitarian "safe zone" for Palestinians to evacuate to during Israel's invasion of the territory.

What's next?

The Israeli military said it was targeting a Hamas command centre, with women and children among those injured.

In short:

A 26-year-old woman, a dual citizen of the US and Türkiye, was shot and killed by Israeli forces during a demonstration in the West Bank, witnesses say.

News of her death came as the IDF seemingly withdrew from the West Bank city of Jenin after its deadliest operation there since October 7.

What's next?

The US has requested more information from Israel, whose military says it is looking into the report of the woman's death.

Donald Trump has been rushed off stage after multiple shots were heard at a rally in Pennsylvania, where the former president was speaking.

Images showed blood on Mr Trump's face and ear and snipers on the roof near the stage where Mr Trump was standing.

A statement from the Trump campaign [...] "He is fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility.

The post has video of the event and immediate aftermath (minimal blood/gore etc)

As of about 9:50 Melbourne time, Reuters and AP are both independently reporting two deaths: a "shooter" and an audience member / rally attendee.

The covert effort began under Trump and continued into Biden’s presidency, Reuters found. Health experts say it endangered lives for possible geopolitical gain.
