On June 15th, 2025, a gathering of civilians waiting for flour trucks east of the Qastal Towers in Deir al-Balah, Gaza Strip, was reportedly hit by an alleged Israeli artillery shelling. Numerous social media posts and local reports consistently confirmed that “injuries” occurred among those gathered.

Sources such as Mohamed Awad, Nusayrat, and “Gaza City now” all explicitly stated “injuries among those waiting for flour trucks… as a result of artillery targeting.”

Several sources, like Mohammed M Azreed, also reported “artillery targeting of a gathering of citizens waiting for aid.”

While no specific number of injured civilians was provided beyond “injuries” or “a number of injuries,” the consistent reporting from independent sources confirms multiple civilians were injured. No fatalities were reported in the provided research.

Where sources identified the belligerent, only one source directly attributed the artillery strike to the Israeli military. However, most of the sources used the word “targeting,” and in the context of the assessment, it is highly likely that these are references to “Israeli targeting.”
