Israeli forces carried out drone strikes on tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in Gaza’s Al-Mawasi area on Saturday, killing several people including two siblings, 15-year-old Islam Musa and 30-year-old Abdullah Musa. The attack occurred in a zone previously designated as a ‘safe area’ under a declared ceasefire. Gaza’s Civil Defense reported rescuing seven injured individuals, who were taken to Nasser and Red Cross hospitals. A separate incident in southern Gaza claimed the life of a 10-year-old child who had been wounded earlier in an Israeli strike.

According to Al-Shifa Hospital, another tent sheltering displaced families in western Gaza City was also hit, injuring at least 12 people, mostly women. The Palestinian Red Crescent said two of the injured were in critical condition. Al Jazeera’s correspondent in Gaza reported that Israeli drone activity continues despite the ceasefire.

A recent United Nations report documented the targeting of children in Gaza, noting that nearly 30 percent of those killed since October 2023 were minors. UN Commissioner Chris Sidoti called the findings heartbreaking and urged states to act, while Gaza’s Health Ministry reported over 73,000 Palestinians killed since the conflict began.
