At least 20 Palestinians killed by Israeli strikes at displaced area in Gaza's Rafah

At least 20 Palestinians were killed and dozens of others wounded after a number of Israeli air strikes hit a camp for the displaced in Gaza's Rafah which set their tents on fire, a civil emergency official told Reuters.

A final death toll at Tal Al-Sultan camp is still being determined, another medic said, adding that dozens were injured by the fire that ensued after the strikes, which residents are still trying to put out.

There was no immediate comment from Israel.
