John Yang:

In today's other news, Israeli strikes in Gaza today killed at least 32 people. One of the strikes was on a water collection point where 10 people died, six of them children. The Israeli military said the site was not the intended target but the missile malfunction. Strikes also hit a home in central Gaza where nine people died and a group of people walking along a Gaza city street killing 11, including a surgeon on his way to work.

Gaza officials say the Palestinian death toll so far in 21 months of war has surpassed 58,000. And in the occupied west bank, funerals were held for two Palestinians killed by settlers this past week, including U. S born Palestinian American Sayfollah Musallet.
