Airwars assessment
On October 25th, 2023, an alleged Israeli airstrike on the Nassar family home in the Al Taabin neighborhood of Al Zuwaida municipality killed 14 civilians from two families and injured 11 others.
@ShehabAgency initially reported that “5 martyrs and a number of injuries” had resulted from the strike on the Nassar family home. Social media testimony from friends and family helped to identify 14 civilians killed in the strike.
Nafez Fadl Nassar (64), his wife Nazmiya Ramsan Nassar (63), their sons Ahmed Nafez Nassar, Mounir Nafez Nassar (19), and Fadel Nafez Nassar (33), and Fadel’s wife Tasneem Bassam Abu Shamala Nassar (28) were among those killed, along with Hiyam Mahmoud Adwan, her sons Abdullah Hamid Abian (24), Hamza Hamid Abian (19), and Dr. Nour Hamid Abian (27), and Nour’s wife who was eight months pregnant with their unborn child. Hiyam’s daughter Hoda Hamid Abian was also killed with her husband Ahmed Abu Ubaida Nassar, as well as Yaham Abian.
A Facebook post by Ibrahim Ahmed reported that the Nassar family home was a five-story residential building, with women and children inside. According to @Palestine202229, the Abian family had already been displaced by the violence in Gaza, and were being sheltered by the Nassar family when they were killed.
Mohammed Mŏĥ posted a testimonial for his “childhood friend, a classmate, my neighbor, and a lifelong friend who whenever we met, we stopped for a while to check on each other” Nour Hamid Abian who was a pharmacist. Mohammed went on to describe Nour as “a great character, a pure heart, and a permanent smile that never leaves his face”. Mohammed R. Sweilam also posted a condolence message for his friend Hamza Hamid Abian, wishing “May Allah have mercy on you and accept you in his wide heavens, my heart”.
The strike caused a number of injuries, and injured people were transported to Al-Aqsa Hospital for treatment, as reported by Al Mayadeen. @alosbou specified that 11 people had been injured in the strike.
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.
Where sources identified a belligerent, all sources attributed the strike to the Israeli military.
