US Edition5 children killed in Israeli airstrike on house and tent sheltering displaced people
- On Sunday, as Palestinians marked the first day of Eid al-Fitr, Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip killed at least nine Palestinians, including five children, hitting locations such as Khan Yunis and Jabalia.
- The nearly six-month-long war, triggered by the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel that resulted in 1,218 deaths, continues to cause widespread destruction and displacement in Gaza.
- An Israeli shelling in the Qizan Abu Rishwan area south of Khan Yunis struck a tent sheltering displaced families, while an airstrike hit a home in Jabalia, and a drone strike wounded civilians in Khirbet Al-Adas, north of Rafah.
- Quoting Mahmud Bassal, spokesman for the civil defence agency, "There are eight martyrs, including five children, following a pre-dawn Israeli air strike on a house and a tent sheltering displaced people in Khan Yunis," reflecting the devastating impact on families during the holiday.
- Despite international calls for a ceasefire and protection of civilians, and with ceasefire negotiations remaining uncertain, the bombardment continues, contributing to a death toll of over 50,000 in Gaza since October 7, 2023, according to the Hamas-run territory's health ministry, and prompting concerns from aid organizations about a worsening humanitarian crisis.
