Israeli Airstrikes Kill Families in Gaza

Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip killed eight people, including two children aged 7 and 9 along with their parents, according to Palestinian officials. A third child, aged 10, was injured in an overnight attack on a tent sheltering displaced individuals in Khan Younis. In a separate strike, four more casualties, including a woman and another child, were reported in the Nuseirat refugee camp. The Israeli military attributes civilian deaths to Hamas, alleging that militants operate within residential areas, complicating the conflict's civilian toll. The current conflict, which erupted on October 7, 2023, has resulted in over 43,800 Palestinian deaths, with a significant number being women and children. The situation continues to attract international concern over humanitarian impacts as the fighting persists.
