Six Palestinians were killed in Israeli airstrikes across Gaza on Saturday, according to medical officials in the region. Four of the victims were women, including Maysa Khader Ibrahim Abu Daoud and Mary Hafez Michel Najjar, who belonged to Gaza City's small Christian community. The first strike targeted an apartment building, while a second strike on a vehicle in Deir Al Balah resulted in another Palestinian fatality and 10 injuries.
As of now, the death toll since the October 2023 ceasefire stands at 1,446 Palestinians, with over 5,060 injured. The Israeli military claimed responsibility for killing a Hamas official in an apartment used by the terror group for illicit activities. However, it remains unclear if this statement pertains to the devastating strike in Gaza City.
In response to the massacre, the closure of all crossings into Gaza and the occupied West Bank was ordered by Defence Minister Israel Katz, marking the anniversary of the October 7 attacks.
