The number of people killed in Gaza since Israel began bombing the territory has now reached 10,022, according to the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza.
The figure comes after a night of intense Israeli strikes, with the Israeli military saying they hit hundreds of targets including a Hamas military compound.
The director of the largest hospital in Gaza City told the BBC earlier that some 200 people were killed.
A group of UN humanitarian agencies and charities have said the "horrific killings" of civilians in Gaza are an "outrage". Thousands of children are believed to be among the dead.
Some politicians, including US President Joe Biden, have questioned the accuracy of the Gaza health ministry's figures.
When asked about this, the World Health Organization said they believed the numbers were reliable. Like other government agencies in Gaza, the health ministry is controlled by Hamas, a proscribed terror group in the UK, US and EU.
Israel launched its attacks on Gaza after Hamas killed more than 1,400 people in Israel and kidnapped more than 200 others on 7 October. The Israeli military says its operation is aimed at destroying Hamas completely.
