At least one child was killed and two others were injured after an alleged Israeli airstrike on a home in the al-Hadba neighborhood of the central Gaza Strip on October 10th, 2023.

The girl who was killed, 13 year old Aseel Hassan, is the daughter of a Dr. Diaa Hassan and Umm Hamza. The post also specified that the couple’s two sons, Omar Hassan and Abdullah Hassan, were injured and were in intensive care. Both sons have been quantified as children based on their sibling’s age.
