11 Dead Including 4 Children in Israeli Air Strike on Gaza Home

“We have recovered the bodies of 11 martyrs, including four children and three women after an Israeli air strike hit the house of the Bustan family in eastern Gaza City,” agency spokesman Mahmud Bassal Said.

The strike took place near the Shujaiya school in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood of Gaza City, he said.

“Rescuers are continuing to search for the missing,” Bassal said.

The Israeli military had no immediate comment on the strike.

Bassal said Israeli forces carried out similar strikes in some other parts of the territory overnight, killing at least 10 people.

Five people were killed in northwestern Gaza City when an air strike hit a group of people near Dar Al-Arqam school, he said.

Three others were killed in a strike in the Al-Mawasi area of the southern Khan Yunis governorate, where tens of thousands of displaced Palestinians have sought refuge, Bassal added.

The war in Gaza broke out after the October 7 attack by Hamas on southern Israel.

Israel’s military campaign has so far killed at least 41,118 people in Gaza, according to the health ministry of the Hamas-run territory. The UN Human Rights Office says most of the dead have been women or children.
