Two Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip on Sunday claimed at least two lives, including a 4-year-old boy, according to Palestinian health officials. One of the strikes targeted a building in Zawayda town, following an Israeli army warning for property owners to vacate the area. Medics reported that flying debris and shrapnel from the attack injured at least six others, including the young boy, Mohammad Abdel-Salam Taha, who later died at a hospital.
Abu Ahmed, a displaced Palestinian, expressed the community's dissatisfaction, stating, "We want solutions, we want to live in peace." The second airstrike occurred in the Nuseirat refugee camp, according to the health officials. Israel's military stated it was investigating both incidents. Hamas has called for a meeting with U.S. official Jared Kushner amid the ongoing conflict.
In the Israeli-occupied West Bank, a separate incident saw an Israeli man stabbed by a Palestinian suspect, and a 14-year-old boy, Islam Ajjouri, was killed during an Israeli raid in Askar refugee camp. The West Bank has witnessed an increase in settler violence and land seizures, with international bodies generally viewing the settlements as illegal.
