The Aporia · Israeli strikes in Gaza kill eight including child, hospitals say

Israeli strikes in Gaza have killed eight individuals, including a child, according to local hospitals. The attacks occurred in two separate incidents: one in Gaza City where three civilians were killed near Cairo School, and another in Khan Younis where five police officers died in an alleged drone attack. These events took place despite the existence of a ceasefire agreement that began last October. Israeli military officials confirmed conducting strikes on targets they described as Hamas operatives but did not provide specific evidence or details beyond this statement.

Story summary

As of November 1, 2026, Israeli strikes in Gaza killed at least eight Palestinians, including a child and five police officers, according to hospital officials and the Hamas-run interior ministry. In Gaza City, three people were killed by an airstrike near Cairo School; while in Khan Younis, five police officers died from a drone attack as they performed their duties. The Israeli military stated that it targeted militants but provided no additional details about either incident. This comes amid ongoing tensions following a year-old ceasefire where Israel accuses Hamas of violating the agreement and rearming, leading to continued military strikes despite international calls for peace.
