The Palestinian Telecommunications Regulatory Authority, based in the West Bank, says Israeli strikes on the main network lines in northern Gaza have collapsed internet and telephone services, cutting Gazans off from the outside world.

Multiple attempts by the Associated Press to reach people in Gaza City fail to go through.

Earlier, Hamas-controlled authorities in the Strip said at least 16 people were killed in overnight strikes, at least half of which were in Gaza City.

The tally does not differentiate between civilians and fighters, but included several women and children, health officials said.
