On October 31st, Israeli forces targeted one of Gaza's most densely populated refugee camps, Jabalia, massacring 50 people and injuring dozens more. Israel has acknowledged it was behind the strike, saying it was targeting a high-ranking Hamas commander, however, Hamas has rejected its commander was present in the camp.
