Death toll from Israeli on Gaza rises to 83

Ongoing Israeli attacks on Gaza have killed 11 more Palestinians, taking the death toll to 83, Anadolu news agency reported on Thursday citing the Palestinian Health Ministry.

Fatalities include 17 children and seven women, while a total of 487 people were injured to date, the ministry statement said.

Tensions have been running high since an Israeli court last week ordered the eviction of Palestinian families from the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood of East Jerusalem.

Israel occupied East Jerusalem during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war and annexed the entire city in 1980, in a move that has never been recognized by the international community.
