Airwars Assessment
Shortly before 11:30 AM on Monday, 23 October 2023, a number of people were reportedly injured by an alleged Israeli airstrike on the Abu Zeina family home in the Bir al-Na’ja area located west of Jabalia in the North Gaza governorate.
Multiple local sources quoted the Ministry of Interior of Gaza, which reported that Israeli aircraft allegedly bombed a house for the “Abu Zina” family in the Bir al-Naja area in the North Gaza Governorate, and there were a number of injuries. No other information was available as to the number of injuries or their identity.
Airwars has graded the strike status as a single source claim and civilian harm status as weak until new information comes to light as all sources provided the same information.
