Airwars assessment
On Tuesday, 17th October, 2023, an alleged Israeli bombing hit the Al-Qahwaji family house located east of the Lailat Al-Omar hall in the Abu Shahla neighborhood area in Bani Suhaila, east of the town of Khan Yunis, reportedly injuring four civilians. The attack completely destroyed the house belonging to Mahmoud Kamel Al-Qahwaji. A number of casualties reportedly arrived at Nasser Hospital, though journalist Ahmad Qudeih claimed they were minor.
Only one source identified the belligerent as the Israeli military, therefore Airwars qualified the strike status as a “single source claim”.
A local time of the incident is unknown.
