Up to six displaced civilians, including a woman and a child, were injured, three of them critically, as a result of alleged Israeli gunfire at Halawa Refugee Camp in the northern Gaza Strip during the day of Thursday, March 26, 2026. Some sources reported that the gunfire was from quadcopter drones, and that the attack happened twice that day.

According to Awda Satellite Channel, @Jamal_A_Salem on Twitter/X and @Hamla Kaddour on Facebook and other sources, among the injured were a child and a woman, and the attack on the displaced civilians was deliberate.

A report by Noha Ezzat for Al-Fath Newspaper, citing a medical source, stated that five people were admitted to Al-Shifa Medical Complex, including one in critical condition, from Halawa camp and the Beit Lahia project, after an Israeli drone deliberately fired on displaced people. The source explained that three of the five injuries occurred inside the Halawa Camp when an Israeli drone fired live ammunition at the tents of displaced people. Palestinian Red Crescent ambulance crews transported four injured people from Halawa Camp to Al-Saraya Field Hospital after providing them with first aid at the scene, according to a statement issued by the organization.

The Palestinian Media Center claimed that six civilians had been wounded in Halawa Camp, including three in serious condition. In a video shared by the source, a correspondent reporting from the place of the incident said the following: “Moments ago, the Israeli ….. targeted this camp, Halawa camp in Jabalia, with more than ten bullets, six of which injured civilians, including women and children. Some of the injuries were serious, and doctors tried to treat them, but the medical shortage was immense, and resources were nonexistent. The Israeli occupation seeks to target those in this camp, east of Jabalia, and is trying to find justifications for the deliberate, not stray, gunfire. Three of the injured were in serious condition, and three others sustained moderate injuries among the children and women.”

Al-Alam correspondent from #Gaza, Muhammad Mansour, claimed that civilians in the Halawa camp had been injured for the second time during the day, as reported by @Science Radio on Facebook around 6 p.m.

A video shared by Omar Al Najjar Abo Sham on Facebook showed an injured man, transported to an ambulance on a stretcher. Images shared by @Hamla Kaddour on Facebook also showed the transportation of an injured man. An image posted by @Bilal Abu Khlifa, also on Facebook, showed an injured boy on a hospital bed.

Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed the strike to the Israeli military.
