Health officials say Israeli strikes and gunfire have killed at least 59 people across Gaza. This comes as international pressure grows for a ceasefire, but Israel's leader remains defiant. Among the dead are nine from the same family in a refugee camp. The attacks occurred after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the U.N. General Assembly that Israel "must finish the job" against Hamas. Countries are urging the U.S. to press Israel for a ceasefire. Meanwhile, hospitals in Gaza are on the brink of collapse, with shortages of medicine, equipment and food.
