Israel-Hamas war: Israeli bombing of Gaza intensifies and death toll surpasses 15,000
From the Guardian liveblog:
An Israeli airstrike targeting the town of Al-Faluja, 30 km (18 miles) northeast of Gaza City, has killed prominent Palestinian scientist Sufyan Tayeh and his family, the Palestinian Higher Education ministry announced on Saturday, Reuters reports.
Tayeh, who was president of the Islamic University of Gaza, was a leading researcher in physics and applied mathematics.
