Airwars Assessment
On October 29th 2023, around 6:00pm, an alleged Israeli airstrike hit the Al-Batsh family home located in the vicinity of the Palestine Islamic Bank in the city of Jabalia, Northern Gaza Strip, destroying the house and causing a number of civilians to be injured. In addition to the Al-Batsh house, neighbouring houses in Jabalia Al Balad also sustained damage.
Wattan News reported at 6:40pm that civilians who had been injured from the strike arrived at the Indonesian Hospital for treatment. No exact numbers were given, and therefore in line with Airwars methodology the injury range has been estimated as 2-2.
While no sources appeared to report any names of the civilian casualties, multiple news agencies including Al Aqsa Voice, Safa, and Shadi Press, reported on the strike.
When sources identified a belligerent, all sources attributed the strike to Israeli forces.
