On Tuesday, October 19th 2023, two civilians were reportedly killed and 21 others, including a baby, were injured by an alleged Israeli airstrike on the home of the Mukhaimer family, located to the west of Khan Yunis.<\/p>\n

Posts from members of the Mukhaimer family identified a 24-year-old man named Mahmoud Ahmed Shteiwi Abu Mukhaimer, a 28-year-old man named Ahmed Ayman Muhammad Abu Mukhaimer and a 28-year-old woman named Afnan Issam Abu Mukhaimer<\/strong> as among those killed in the incident. Mahmoud’s brother Muhammad’s wife<\/strong> was also killed in the strike, however, sources have not identified her full name. A Facebook post by Shahda Mukhaimer identified Mahmoud and Ahmed as “mujahid”, therefore they have not been counted among the civilians killed.<\/p>\n

The Mukhaimer family Facebook posted a memorial to Mahmoud, Ahmed, and Afnan, describing Afnan as a woman “who preserved the Book of God Almighty.”<\/p>\n

Further sources, such as Moaab News and Sky News Arabia, reported that 21 civilians were injured in the strike. A Facebook post by Fateh News reported that amongst the injured was a two-year-old baby.<\/p>\n

Where possible, Airwars has matched names with the Palestinian Ministry of Health list of nearly 7000 victims\u2019 names and ID numbers released on October 26th.<\/p>\n

Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed the strikes to Israeli forces.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","country":[767],"belligerent":[438],"strike_type":[431],"cause_of_death":[448],"targeted_belligerents":[],"strike_status":[832],"civilian_harm_reported":[834],"civilian_harm_status":[837],"belligerent_assessment":[],"geolocation_assessor":[908],"declassified_document":[900],"geolocation_status":[924],"observation":[],"munition":[],"casualty":[959,958],"impact":[],"documentation":[],"citation":[],"geolocation_observation":[],"protected_persons":[],"infrastructure":[1022],"infrastructure_affiliation":[],"infrastructure_declared_target":[],"infrastructure_destruction":[],"profession":[],"casualty_affiliation":[],"class_list":["post-100892","civ","type-civ","status-publish","hentry","country-the-gaza-strip","belligerent-israeli-military","strike_type-airstrike","cause_of_death-heavy-weapons-and-explosive-munitions","strike_status-likely-strike","civilian_harm_reported-yes","civilian_harm_status-fair","geolocation_assessor-duncan-salko","declassified_document-no","geolocation_status-complete","casualty-children","casualty-women","infrastructure-residential"],"acf":{"latitude":"","longitude":"","geolocation_accuracy":"","multiple_location_incident":null,"geolocations":[{"latitude":31.346149,"longitude":34.303899,"geolocation_accuracy":"city","primary_coordinate":true}],"geojson":"","show_geolocation_caption":false,"geojson_caption":"","media_geolocation":null,"geolocation_notes":"Reports of the incident mention the city of Khan Younis (\u062e\u0627\u0646 \u064a\u0648\u0646\u0633), for which the generic coordinates are: 31.346149, 34.303899.
