Israel destroys dozens of buildings in Gaza City as new offensive intensifies | BBC News

Israel has ordered Gaza City residents to evacuate as strikes and demolitions have destroyed dozens of buildings.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said its offensive has established control over 40% of the city.

Hamas has released a video showing two Israeli hostages seized from a music festival during its cross-border attack in October 2023.

The video claims to show Guy Gilboa-Dalal in Gaza City in late August, where he says he and eight others are being held and will remain despite Israel's ground offensive.

Gaza's Civil Defence Agency said Israeli strikes killed 42 people on Friday.
