Airwars Assessment
In the northern Gaza Strip, an alleged Israeli airstrike reportedly killed nine civilians and injured others in the Bir Al-Na’ja area, west of Jabalia camp, on October 29th, 2024.
There were few further details about the incident publicly available. The names of the victims have not been made public. Further, the specific number of injuries is presently unclear. While Facebook user Hoda Aldghamy reported “several” injuries, another source, Fadi N.Y, claimed “dozens” had been injured. This report will be updated if and when more details emerge.
Media and news company al-Haya Press Service reported that a number of homes were hit during the attack, with a Twitter/X post shared by @Fatma_Kh documented the bombing from a distance.
Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed the strike to Israeli forces.
