20 killed after trucks overturn on crowd in Gaza, Hamas-run civil defence says

Twenty people have died and dozens have been injured after four trucks overturned in central Gaza on Tuesday, the Hamas-run civil defence agency says

Crowds reportedly moved towards the trucks, climbing on top, causing the drivers to lose control on the uneven roads

Meanwhile, a top UN official has warned of "catastrophic consequences" if Israel expands its military operations in Gaza

It follows reports that PM Benjamin Netanyahu is pushing for a total reoccupation of the territory - here's what that would involve

The country's army chief and other military leaders reportedly oppose the strategy, and some families of hostages fear it could further endanger their loved ones

The Israeli government does not allow international news organisations, including the BBC, into Gaza to report freely
