On 18 March 2025, multiple news networks reported injuries as a result of the alleged Israeli artillery shelling in Beit Hanoun, northern Gaza.

Agencies reporting the alleged Israeli attack included Quds News Network, Palestine Today TV and the Palestine Information Center. All the sources reported via Twitter/X.

Information about this alleged attack is sparse, but all sources reported injuries and Israeli military shelling as the cause of said injuries. The assessment will be updated should new information come to light.

Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed the strike to the Israeli Military. Due to the repetitive nature of reporting and the lack of information on civilian harm, Airwars has graded the strike status of the incident as “single source claim”, and the civilian harm status of the incident as “weak.”
