An attack in Gaza that killed nine members of the same family was due to faulty assessment of the risk to civilians, the Israeli army has said as it admitted “mistakes”.
Air attacks on November 14 targeted the home of Rasmi Abu Malhous, a Palestinian Authority (PA) employee in Gaza, and his brother Mohamed.
Nine members of the Sawarka family were killed by four attacks over their home in Deir al-Balah. Five victims were children.
