Airwars Assessment
During the morning of October 29, 2023, a bus on Street 10 south of Gaza City was allegedly struck by an Israeli airstrike while carrying civilians resulting in “a number” of civilians killed and injured.
A photo from Roya News showed the vehicle completely destroyed and burned with the windows broken and pieces of rubble crushing the front part of the bus. No further information was provided as to the number of civilians killed or injured as well as to the identity of the victims. Ramallah News alleged that a “large number” of people had been killed or wounded, meaning casualties ranges may have been higher.
Where sources identified a belligerent, all pointed to the Israeli military.
