Israeli attacks kill at least four Palestinians in northern Gaza

What the report says

At least four Palestinians were killed and others wounded in northern Gaza on Thursday, according to Al Jazeera, citing a medical source at al-Shifa Hospital and Palestinian news agency Wafa. The reported strikes and gunfire took place around the Jabalia refugee camp, where Israeli military vehicles and a drone were said to have fired on shelters and tents holding displaced people. Al Jazeera also reported overnight shelling and helicopter fire in the same area.

The article said an additional air attack hit the vicinity of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya, also in northern Gaza. Sources told Al Jazeera that a Palestinian man, his wife and their two daughters were killed in that raid. The reporting places the attacks in the context of continued violence in Gaza despite a U.S.-backed ceasefire that began in October 2025, which Al Jazeera says has not stopped Israeli operations in the territory.

The deaths add to a very large toll from the war in Gaza, which Al Jazeera said has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians since October 7, 2023, with many of the victims reported to be women and children. More broadly, the article reflects ongoing concerns among Palestinian rights advocates that repeated strikes and displacement may be linked to efforts to push Palestinians out of Gaza, a view that some Israeli officials have disputed or reframed in public remarks.
