At least 11 Palestinians, including women and children, were killed and dozens more injured following a series of Israeli airstrikes targeting residential areas in Gaza City early Thursday, according to local medical officials and eyewitnesses.
Residents reported that Israeli helicopters launched coordinated strikes on four residential buildings in the Sheikh Radwan and Tel al-Hawa neighborhoods, as well as in the Shati refugee camp. The attacks triggered powerful explosions and caused extensive damage to nearby homes.
Videos circulating on social media showed scenes of panic and destruction, with residents attempting to escape from a building engulfed in flames in the Shati camp area.
The Israeli military said the operation targeted senior members of Hamas's General Security Apparatus. According to the military, those killed included deputy chief Hassan Labad and three other officials identified as Asim Shubair, Abdullah Abu Kaloub, and Mohammed Abu Marq.
Local sources stated that Labad was killed alongside his wife and three children. Gaza's Civil Defence agency reported that among the victims were two children with disabilities from the same family, as well as three women.
Despite a ceasefire agreement brokered by the United States and implemented in October 2025, Israeli forces have continued conducting airstrikes in Gaza, accusing Hamas of rebuilding its military capabilities. Gaza health authorities say more than 940 people have been killed since the truce began.
The humanitarian situation in Gaza remains severe, with aid agencies warning of worsening conditions as military operations continue. Reports have also emerged that Israel plans to expand the territory under its control within Gaza.
The conflict began after the Hamas-led attack on southern Israel on October 7, 2023, which Israeli authorities say killed about 1,200 people and resulted in 251 hostages being taken. Israel's subsequent military campaign in Gaza has killed more than 72,950 people, according to Gaza's health ministry.
