In Gaza, which was pummelled by Israeli airstrikes, officials reported at least 413 deaths.

Two Israeli tourists and local guide shot dead in Egypt, Israel says

Two Israeli tourists and their Egyptian guide have been shot dead in the Egyptian city of Alexandria, the Israeli foreign ministry says.

There was no immediate confirmation from Egyptian authorities.

The assailant fired “at random” using his personal weapon, it cited a security source as saying, adding that he was detained at the scene.
