At least 54 people have been killed in new Israeli strikes on Gaza, including 11 people sheltering in three displaced people's tents in Khan Younis

At least 54 Palestinians have been killed in a new round of Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip since dawn on Saturday, Al Jazeera Arabic has reported.

Casualties have been reported across the devastated territory, including in Gaza City, Khan Younis, Beit Lahia, and Al-Bureij refugee camp. In Khan Younis, eleven people were killed in a strike on three tents housing displaced people.

Israeli forces have killed almost 1,700 Palestinians in Gaza since Israel ended the ceasefire on 18 March and resumed its attack.

Israel has also imposed a total siege on Gaza, cutting off all humanitarian aid, and supplies of food, medicine, and other essential goods are dwindling fast, with NGOs saying that a famine is already in place.

The total death toll from the 18-month conflict stands at more than 51,000, according to the Gaza-based health ministry, with thousands of uncounted victims believed to be trapped under the rubble of destroyed buildings.
