On the evening of October 24th, 2023, a civilian, 28-year-old Samir Ziad Kamal Al-Qudra, also known as Abu Ziad, was reportedly killed as a result of an alleged Israeli bombing on his house in Khan Yunis, Gaza Strip.
The Palestinian press agency, Safa, reported on October 25th that Samir was killed in “the bombing of his house yesterday in Khan Yunis.”
Friends and family paid tribute to Samir on social media, with a Ahmed B Al-Qudra describing him as a “decent son of the family”.
