Airwars Assessment
Between five and eight civilians, including at least three children and two women, were reportedly killed and a number of civilians were injured in an alleged Israeli bombardment on the Dalloul family home in the Al Zaytoun neighbourhood, south of Gaza City, on the morning of Sunday 29th October 2023.
Whilst several sources, including Al Jazeera and the Gazan Shehab News Agency, initially placed the number of deaths at five, Gaza-based journalist Abdul Rahman al-Abadla reported on Facebook later that morning that eight members of the Dalloul family had been killed in the strike.
Injuries were also reported, with sources including Raed Hammad, another Gaza-based journalist.
In a post on X/Twitter, al-Aqsa Voice Radio detailed that of five bodies recovered from the Dalloul family home in the aftermath of the strike, two were women and three were children. The full identities of the victims were not publicly reported.
Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed the strike to Israeli forces.
