Israel has⁤ closed all ⁢checkpoints to the Israeli-occupied West⁤ Bank, a military official said Friday, after the‍ country attacked Iran. The closure ⁣restricts entry and⁢ exit ​to⁣ the territory, preventing Palestinians from leaving without⁣ special coordination.

The move comes as reports surface of further casualties in Gaza.According to Al Jazeera reporter Anas al-Sharif and Drop Site News, dozens of​ Palestinians were killed and injured when Israeli forces opened fire ​on people waiting for aid near⁣ a checkpoint north of Nuseirat.The reports described it‍ as the latest such massacre.

Al-Sharif‌ also reported that more Palestinians were killed when Israeli gunboats targeted tents of displaced people ⁢on a‍ beach northwest of⁣ Gaza City. Independent verification of these reports remains unachievable, as​ Israel has​ barred foreign journalists from entering ‌Gaza and has cut off internet service to the region since Thursday.
