At least 9 dead after Israeli military bombs house in Khan Younis
The Israeli military has bombed a house in the Sheikh Nasser area, east of Khan Younis in southern Gaza. At least nine people are confirmed dead in that attack, with children among the casualties.
Three homes were struck, including the Abu Asi family home and another belonging to the Alaa Abu Sabla family, while tents housing displaced Palestinians nearby were also affected, according to Wafa.
More people have been injured, including children, in the attack.
Israeli fire kills family in Bureij amid dire humanitarian situation
Funerals have been held in different areas across the Gaza Strip for the Palestinians who were killed overnight.
Meanwhile, Israeli artillery has just hit a group of Palestinians in the Bureij refugee camp, killing a mother, a father and their child. This has been continuous. Israeli forces have been hitting different parts across the Strip – in the north, the south and also in the middle, including Nuseirat and Khan Younis yesterday.
But it’s not only the air attacks and artillery shelling that Palestinians are suffering from. It’s also the fact that there is a shortage of food, a shortage of flour, with Palestinians striving to provide a meal to their children. I’m at al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital and behind me there is a queue of people waiting to receive treatment – but the hospital is out of medicine and medical supplies.
The patients include those injured in the Israeli attacks as well as those with chronic diseases such as diabetes, asthma and others.
All this while winter is coming and Palestinians are living in tents. More than half of the population is in makeshift camps right now; they have been displaced multiple times and have been living in tents for more than a year. Palestinian families are unable to provide shelter for their children, unable to find food and even medicine.
At least two killed at Kamal Adwan Hospital’s gate in Gaza’s Beit Lahiya
Israeli warplanes have struck Kamal Adwan Hospital’s northern gate in northern Gaza’s Beit Lahiya town, killing at least two people and injuring others, according to the Wafa news agency and our colleagues on the ground.
As we’ve been reporting, the hospital has been battered by a series of recent Israeli attacks, including an overnight quadcopter attack on its generator. An air attack near the facility earlier this week killed dozens, including many women and children, according to the hospital’s director.

Israeli captive killed in northern Gaza: Hamas
Hamas’s armed wing spokesman says an Israeli woman held captive has been killed in northern Gaza.
Abu Obeida said she was killed in an area attacked by Israeli forces. “After re-establishing contact weeks later with those assigned to protect the captives, it emerged a woman was killed in an area under Israeli fire in the northern Gaza Strip,” he said.
Another woman – also an Israeli captive – was critically wounded and her life is in danger, said Abu Obeida, adding Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government are responsible for the lives of the abductees.
There was no immediate comment from Israel’s government.
