At around 6:00 a.m, on Wednesday, November 8, 2023, an Israeli strike allegedly struck the homes of the Sammour and Hassouna families in west Gaza, near the old post office in the Beach Refugee Camp (Al-Shati). Injuries were reported as a result of the attack.
The Shehab Agency reported on its Twitter/X account (@ShehabAgency) that an unspecified number of people were injured and claimed the incident was carried out by “occupation forces.”
Airwars has graded the attribution of this incident as a “single source claim”, as all available sources appear to be replicating the same information originally shared by the Shehab Agency. The civilian harm status has been graded as “weak” due to the lack of information on victims.
