Airwars Assessment
Shortly before 11:09 PM on Tuesday, October 31st, 2023, a number of civilians, including at least one young man, were reportedly killed and several civilians were injured in an alleged Israeli attack on a motorcycle in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip.
At 11:09 PM the account @ShehabAgency posted to X/ Twitter to report multiple martyrs and injuries as a result of the attack. On the same day, Wafa News and a correspondent from the Al-Mayadeen news outlet reported the same incident involving the motorcycle in Khan Younis.
In a post to Facebook, the account under the name Hassan Alyacoubi announced the death of a young man in the motorcycle incident but did not reveal any further details regarding his identity.
While only one source attributed the strike to the Israeli military, multiple sources referred to the motorcycle as “targeted”, therefore this incident has been graded as likely strike/fair.
