Airwars assessment
On July 15th, 2024, ambulance and emergency services reported to have recovered the bodies of two civilians in the Bedouin village northeast of Beit Lahia city in the northern Gaza Strip.
This information was tweeted by numerous Twitter/X users, including Safa and Quds news agencies around 1:23 PM, but it was not clear whether the civilians killed were the victims of a strike that occurred on the same day.
At the time of the report, the sources did not attribute the strike leading to the death of the two civilians to any specific belligerent. Therefore, Airwars graded both strike status and civilian harm status as contested until more information comes to light.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
