At least 23 people have been killed in Israeli air strikes on two houses in central Lebanon where displaced families were reportedly living, the Lebanese health ministry says.

New Israeli bombardment comes on the verge of a U.S. deadline for Israel to ramp up humanitarian aid allowed into Gaza or risk restrictions on military aid.

Palestinian medical officials say two Israeli strikes in Gaza killed at least 14 people, including two children and a woman, most in an Israeli-declared humanitarian zone.
