Airwars assessment
Up to six civilians were killed and three civilians were injured, across three generations of the Daloul family, when an alleged Israeli bomb hit their home on October 9th 2023.
The house was next to the Bilal bin Rabah Mosque, east of Gaza city. Surviving members of the family were reported to have had to pull their loved ones from the rubble of the building.
Grandparents Umm Ali Daloul and Mustafa Ali Daloul (54 years old) were killed. Their son Ali Mustafa Ali Daloul (Abu Mustafa, identified as an armed militant by Hayawi on Twitter) and his wife, Aya Muhammed Farajallah (Umm Mustafa) were killed. Aya and Ali’s daughter Zein Dalloul (identified as either 5 or 7) was killed, while her young siblings Mustafa Daloul (5), Karem Daloul, and Karma Daloul were all injured.
Brothers Muhammad Mustafa Ali Daloul (24 years old) and Fares Mustafa Ali Dalloul were reported killed as well – one source, Mazen Drabya on Facebook, identified the father of Muhammad and Fares as Mustafa Dalloul Al-Darash. The Palestinian Ministry of Health identified a Fares Mustafa Ali Dalloul as 17 years old, included in the list below.
All victims are reportedly civilians except for Ali Mustafa Ali Daloul (29 years old) who, according to multiple sources, was a field commander in the National Resistance Brigades, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Airwars found a partial match only for Ali Mustafa Daloul in the Ministry of Health list of names released on October 26th.
The family members were reported to be mourned by surviving relatives Hiyam Abdel Rahman Darabeh and Muhammad Farajallah who are Aya‘s parents, by her uncle Abu Tamer Farajallah and cousin Nour Farajallah.
Watani Breaking News reported six deaths, all other sources reported seven. Given the likely militant status of Ali Mustafa Daloul, Airwars has included at least one militant in our belligerent count, and estimated the upper range of civilian deaths to be six.
Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed the strikes to Israeli forces.
Where possible, Airwars has matched names with the Palestinian Ministry of Health list of nearly 7000 victims’ names and ID numbers released on October 26th.
Due to the scale and urgency of Airwars’ assessment process, all images have been automatically uploaded to each assessment with the graphic filter applied to protect users. We have also included all images identified from the sources, which may also include any imagery of combatants.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
The victims were named as:
Family members (9)
