A reported Israeli air strike Wednesday afternoon on a busy market in Shuja’iya east of Gaza City killed at least 17 and wounded 200, Palestinian health officials said.

The market was crowded because people understood there was a ceasefire at the time, health officials said. The Israeli military had warned that a “humanitarian window” did not apply “where IDF soldiers are operating.”

Where are they not operating?
