Israeli Airstrike Kills Parents and Six-Month-Old in Nuseirat

The strike highlights persistent civilian harm from near-daily Israeli strikes while diplomacy with Hamas remains stalled.

Overview

  • Medics said an Israeli airstrike on an apartment in the Nuseirat refugee camp killed Mohammad Abu Mallouh, his wife Alaa Zaqlan and their six-month-old son Osama.
  • Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir el-Balah received the bodies and medical workers reported about 10 people wounded in the same attack.
  • There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military about the strike, which fits a pattern of limited immediate explanations for individual post-ceasefire strikes.
  • Gaza health officials say roughly 880 to 900 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli strikes since the U.S.-brokered October ceasefire, a figure that does not distinguish fighters from civilians.
  • The May 24 strike comes as talks between Israel and Hamas remain deadlocked and repeated displacements, buffer-zone operations and home demolitions have strained Gaza’s hospitals, aid delivery and civilian safety.
