Airwars assessment
On October 30, 2023, the Khadura family home near the al-Qassam Square in Northern Gaza’s Beit Lahia was allegedly shelled by Israeli forces. Though no source reported any deaths, multiple sources noted that there were a number of injuries and casualties. No identification, including names, has been made public.
According to a Shehab reporter and Almnara news, the injured were taken to the Indonesian Hospital for treatment. Images shared on social media pages show a child being treated by medical staff. Another shows a man, dazed and covered in dust, clutching his wounded leg, as another man with a visibly blood-stained shirt sits next to him.
A video shared by Facebook user 5newspal shows the destruction wrought by the bombardment: a half-destroyed building, and personal belongings strewn throughout the street.
Due to the repetition of sources related to the civilian harm, the civilian harm status has been graded as “weak” until additional information is found.
Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed the strike to Israeli forces.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
