- GAZA CITY, PALESTINE — SEPT. 27, 2025: An Israeli airstrike hit a building on al-Bahr Street in Gaza City on Saturday, Sept. 27, while Palestinian civilians were gathered nearby.

Israeli forces carried out several strikes in Gaza City, including the al-Daraj neighborhood's al-Sidra area, targeting a civilian gathering, killing eight people, four of whom were children.

In the city’s al-Tuffah neighborhood, an airstrike on a family home killed 11 people, among them children and women.

A strike on another family home in the Shati refugee camp claimed the lives of nine people. Another strike in the city's west, near Abbas Junction, killed five more Palestinians.

Israeli strikes killed one person in a residential apartment on al-Wehda Street in al-Rimal and another in the Shejaiya neighborhood when they were targeted using a drone.

Israeli strikes also hit a group of displaced Palestinians on al-Rashid Street, a route Israel designates as a “safe corridor” for evacuation to the south, killing one person and injuring others.

Six more people were killed in separate attacks across Gaza City.

The Israeli army has killed nearly 65,600 Palestinians, most of them women and children, in Gaza since October 2023. Months of air and ground assaults have left Gaza largely uninhabitable, pushing its population into famine.
