Israeli Strikes in Gaza Kill 11, Including Children and Journalists, local medics reported on Wednesday. The deadly attacks struck central Gaza and Khan Younis, leaving civilians killed in Gaza and journalists among the victims. Palestinian health officials confirmed that two boys and three journalists died in separate Israeli airstrike and tank shelling incidents.
The attacks occurred in a war-shattered enclave where a three-month-old ceasefire had reduced tensions, but violence has surged again. An Israeli airstrike targeted a vehicle carrying journalists filming a displaced persons camp. Local reporters said their humanitarian mission aimed to document civilian suffering. The Egyptian relief committee sponsored the trip, but an Egyptian security source provided limited details.
Meanwhile, Israeli tank shelling killed three more Palestinians, including a 10-year-old boy, in central Gaza. Two others, including a 13-year-old boy, were shot in Khan Younis. The Gaza health ministry confirmed the total death toll reached 11, highlighting ongoing conflict escalation. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said the strikes targeted suspects operating a Hamas drone, emphasizing a security rationale behind the attacks.
Humanitarian concerns are rising as child casualties and media workers’ deaths continue to mount. The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate criticized the strikes, stressing that press freedom and civilian safety must be protected. Experts warn that accountability for killings is vital because formal investigations into past Israeli fire incidents remain incomplete.
The repeated Gaza attacks underscore the fragile ceasefire and escalating humanitarian crisis. Civilians, especially children and journalists, face increasing risks, making international attention and reporting from conflict zones crucial.
