Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry says that Gaza hospitals have received the bodies of two people killed by IDF gunfire in Gaza over the past 24 hours.
The report does not identify the dead or say where they were killed.
Gaza hospitals also attended to 13 people wounded by IDF gunfire over the past 24 hours, the ministry says, without specifying the severity of the wounds.
There was no immediate comment from the IDF.
Khan Younis’s Nasser Hospital said this morning that it received the body of a person killed by the IDF on the Israeli-controlled side of the Gaza ceasefire line southeast of Khan Younis, and the body of another person killed by the IDF on the Hamas-controlled side.
One was identified in Palestinian media as 15-year-old Alaa Asaraf, and the other as Fadi Salah, whose age was not reported.
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.
