A nurse in Gaza has told the BBC his wife and six children - including a group of quadruplets - were killed in an attack in the central Gaza strip.
"My entire family has been wiped out in an instant", says Ashraf El Attar, "leaving me with nothing".
The nurse - who works at Gaza's European hospital - says his family home in Deir-al-Balah was hit in the early hours of Sunday morning. He survived with minor injuries.
Israel has not spoken about this specific attack, but has said its forces were operating in the city. It says it only targets members of armed groups.
Killed in the strike were Mr El Attar's wife - Hala Khattab, a teacher - and their six children - a 15-year-old boy, a one-year-old girl, and their four 10-year-old quadruplets.
All the outer walls of their apartment building were destroyed.
"I desperately called out for my children and my wife, but it was too late.
"My six children, including four twins, and my wife were killed instantly in the attack," he says.
The strike took them by surprise, Mr El Attar says. The night before, the family had spent time "enjoying a soap opera together", trying to "escape the harsh reality of war".

Can the loss of innocent lives during conflicts be justified if it's part of a larger military operation?

If you were in the position of making decisions in a conflict, how would you ensure the safety of non-combatants?
