At least five people, including a child, were killed Saturday in the Gaza Strip in airstrikes and shelling attributed to the Israeli army, according to Palestinian health officials. These latest bombings come amid a conflict that continues to claim numerous civilian lives.
According to local health authorities, an Israeli airstrike targeted a residential building in the Sabra neighborhood of Gaza City. The attack killed four Palestinians, including two women and a child.
Rescuers reported that the apartment in question was completely destroyed by the explosion. Several other people were also injured and treated after the attack, while rescue teams continued their work in the rubble.
According to the same medical sources, a fifth person was killed in a separate incident involving Israeli fire in the Palestinian enclave. The precise circumstances of this event were not immediately clear.
The strikes caused further damage in areas already heavily affected by months of fighting. Residents continue to face a dire humanitarian situation, marked by widespread destruction and increasing needs for medical and food assistance.
No immediate reaction from the Israeli military has been reported regarding these incidents. The violence continues as diplomatic efforts to achieve a lasting de-escalation in the region have so far failed to end the clashes.
