Israeli military operations in Gaza

Overview

Israeli military operations in Gaza City have resulted in multiple civilian fatalities. In early September, a drone strike killed a six-year-old girl and her father near the Hamid intersection. This incident occurred amid reported violations of a ceasefire agreement that had been in effect since October 2025.

By mid-September, another drone strike in Gaza City killed a 15-year-old boy, Mohammad Abdul Zinati, while he was attempting to assist a wounded paramedic on Salah Khalaf Street. The Israeli military identified the paramedic as a legitimate target due to alleged Hamas affiliations, though Israel maintains it does not intentionally target civilians.

On September 18, witnesses reported a ‘double tap’ drone strike near Al-Shifa Hospital. The incident began when an initial strike severely injured Sharif Shadi Labad, identified by Gaza civil defense as a rescuer. As bystanders and relatives, including 26-year-old Mohammed Rajeh Zinati, rushed to assist, a second drone strike hit the area. The subsequent explosion killed Mohammed, Zinati’s cousin, who sustained strikes to the chest and abdomen. The Israeli military stated that Labad was a legitimate target due to his affiliation with Hamas’s Nukhba elite force.

Other recent strikes in the territory have claimed at least four additional Palestinian lives. These include the death of Basir al-Bursh, the eldest son of Gaza’s Ministry of Health Director-General Munir al-Bursh, who was hit by a missile near Jabalia, and a ten-year-old girl killed in an attack near the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza.
