Airstrike kills 3 Palestinians in southern Gaza as Israel presses on with its war against Hamas

Israel conducts airstrike in Gaza despite the International Court of Justice's order to prevent death and destruction. South Africa accuses Israel of genocide against Palestinians as war death toll rises to 26,257. Israel continues the offensive, hostages remain in Gaza. The ministry does not distinguish between combatants and civilians in its count, but has said about two-thirds are women and children.
