Airwars assessment
On October 25th 2023, at least 15 members of the Abu Oreiban family were killed and 53 others were reported injured, including children, after an alleged Israeli airstrike hit a residential home near Al-Ahram Hall, in Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
Lawyer Mona Abo Ereban’s Facebook post has helped identify 15 of Abu Oreban’s family members that were killed during the alleged Israeli airstrike. Amongst those killed were siblings Ibrahim Muhammad Ibrahim Abu Oreiban (15) and Israa Muhammad Ibrahim Abu Oreiban. Aisha Abu Oraiban (Umm Iyad), Abida Abu Oreiban, seven months pregnant Doaa Abu Zahir Abu Oreiban, Doaa’s children (based on the picture, one son and one daughter), Muhammad Suleiman Abu Oreiban (61) alongside his daughter Amna Muhammad Suleiman Abu Oreiban, Abdullah Muhammad Abu Oreiban alongside his children Ibrahim Abdullah Abu Oreiban (5, son) and Aisha Abdullah Abu Oreiban (daughter). The airstrike also reportedly killed Ahlam Jamal Khattab Abu Oreiban alongside her daughters Maram Iyad Abu Oreiban, Sarah Iyad Abu Oreiban (12), Hala Iyad Abu Oreiban, and her son Muhammad Iyad Abu Oreiban (14).
After the alleged attack, multiple media companies such as Alhaqeqa Aldawlia in Jordan, Safa.ps, and Alkofiya initially reported four civilian deaths, whereas al-Awda Hospital’s Twitter/X posted information on 12 civilian deaths and 53 injuries. As stated in their post, two of the civilian injuries were transferred for treatment to al-Aqsa Hospital. Alongside their Twitter/X post, as well as on their Facebook account, al-Awda Hospital has shared photographs of people being treated by medical professionals at the hospital’s reception and the emergency department. Many of those portrayed in photographs were young children, though the total number of children harmed was not widely reported.
Nabd News and Shehab Agency have shared numerous photographs showing the destruction of the three-story building and the rescue efforts. The scenes following the alleged Israeli bombing were also documented in videos that were posted on a Facebook group created by Jaber al-Ajrami and on Twitter/X by Alhayat press.
Several people took to social media to post about the deaths of the Abu Oreiban family. Nuseirat City’s Facebook group shared the names of those killed alongside the message: ‘We ask God Almighty to accept them and grant them the highest paradise.’ Mohamed Elgreitly’s Facebook post, written the following day, expressed sympathy and condolences for the loss of the entire Abu Oreban family.
A tweet from @alhayatps identified the location of the strike as “near Abu Sarar roundabout” while other sources mentioned that the home belonged to Lal Abu Oreiban and was close to Al-Ahram (pyramids) Hall, as well as Prince’s Sweets Factory.
Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed air strikes to Israeli forces.
Where possible, names have been matched with the Palestinian Ministry of Health list of fatalities in Gaza released on October 26th, 2023.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
The victims were named as:
Family members (17)
