Israeli strikes and gunfire killed at least six people, including a child, in the Gaza Strip today, health officials in the Palestinian enclave say.
One airstrike killed four Palestinians, including two women and a child, in an apartment building in Gaza City, health officials say. The attack on the building in the Sabra neighborhood of Gaza City destroyed the apartment and wounded several other people, medics add.
In another incident, Israeli forces shot and killed a woman in Beit Lahiya town further north, according to medics.
Later, an Israeli airstrike killed at least one person and wounded eight others in Khan Younis, south of the enclave, taking the day’s death toll to at least six.
The IDF does not immediately comment on the incidents.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
