Israeli forces have killed 19 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip since Saturday, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry.

The ministry said on Tuesday afternoon that six people had been killed in the previous 24 hours, following 13 deaths over the weekend.

One Palestinian succumbed to his wounds on Tuesday morning after Israeli forces bombed the displacement camp where he was staying in Khan Younis.

Another was killed in an air strike targeting a group of people at the University College of Applied Sciences (UCAS) in Khan Younis.

Israeli attacks on school pupils and university students across the Gaza Strip have increased in recent weeks, following the start of the new academic year.
