Israeli attacks kill 11 Palestinians in Gaza

Israeli attacks killed 11 Palestinians, including a child, a doctor and a woman, and wounded around 40 others across the Gaza Strip on Thursday, according to medical sources. In the latest attack, a Palestinian man was killed and another moderately wounded when an Israeli drone struck a gathering of civilians in Jabalia al-Nazla in the northern Gaza Strip, a medical source at Al-Shifa Hospital told Anadolu. Earlier, a 35-year-old man and a woman were killed when an Israeli drone struck a civilian vehicle near Al-Shifa Hospital, according to the source.

The man was killed in the strike, while the 46-year-old woman later died from serious wounds sustained in the attack, the source added. In northwestern Gaza City, several Palestinians sustained minor injuries when an Israeli drone struck an evacuated home in the Shati refugee camp, according to medical sources. In central Gaza, another man was killed and others were wounded when an Israeli drone struck a civilian vehicle on Al-Baraka Street in Deir al-Balah, said a medical source at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital.

Separately, the body of Hassan Abu Khreis arrived at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital after he was shot by Israeli forces in the Bureij refugee camp, according to a medical source.

In southern Gaza, a 23-year-old Palestinian woman was seriously wounded by Israeli military fire targeting displacement tents in the Bir 19 area of al-Mawasi, west of Khan Younis.

A medical source said she was shot while sleeping inside her tent and was taken to Nasser Hospital, where she was admitted to the intensive care unit. An Israeli airstrike hit the second floor of the Al-Yasin building at Nasser Medical Complex in western Khan Younis, killing six and injuring around 30 others, said Gaza’s Civil Defense. The hospital’s director said the strike caused extensive damage to the intensive care and surgical wards.

Israeli Army Radio described the attack as an “assassination operation” but provided no details. Those killed included medical staff, patients and their companions, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. The ministry identified Dr. Rizq Abu Shaira among the dead. It condemned the bombing as “a serious assault on the health system and a flagrant violation of international laws and conventions that guarantee protection of medical facilities.”

The attacks came amid continued Israeli violations of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas that took effect on Oct. 10, 2025. As of Wednesday, the violations had killed 1,622 Palestinians and wounded 5,878, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. The figures do not include Thursday’s casualties. Since Oct. 8, 2023, Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians and wounded over 175,000, most of them women and children.

The war has destroyed 90% of the enclave’s infrastructure, while the UN has estimated reconstruction costs at $71.4 billion.
