Gaza Health Ministry reports 7 dead, 28 injured in latest Israeli attacks

Israel's air force carried out four drone strikes on a vehicle crossing the Gaza‑Strip's Wadi Gaza bridge near the al‑Nuseirat camp, killing 21‑year‑old Hassan Mustafa Zuhair al‑Rizaina and wounding several others. The Israeli drones fired four missiles at the civilian convoy, igniting the vehicle and prompting a rescue effort hampered by ongoing hostilities.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health said the attacks brought the death toll in the past 48 hours to seven and injuries to 28. Since the cease‑fire began on 11 October, the ministry records 1,098 fatalities and 3,535 injuries, with 800 bodies already retrieved. The cumulative casualty count since the conflict started in early October reaches 73,221 dead and 173,643 injured.
