Story summary

On September 13, 2026, an Israeli airstrike hit a vehicle in the Tel Al-Hawa neighborhood of Gaza City, killing at least two Palestinians and injuring 13 others. Local medical staff reported that the bodies of those killed were dismembered by the explosion, urging the public to provide information for identification. The Israeli military stated it targeted two Hamas militants but did not offer further details.

This attack occurred amid an ongoing ceasefire agreement brokered in October 2025 with U.S. backing, which halted large-scale fighting but failed to prevent frequent Israeli strikes on Gaza. Since the truce began, over 1,300 Palestinians, mostly civilians, have been killed according to health authorities.

Hamas accuses Israel of violating the ceasefire and obstructing U.S. President Donald Trump’s plan for broader peace efforts that include an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and the disarmament of Hamas, while Israel claims Hamas has violated the deal.
