Israeli attacks on Gaza kill 14, including mourners attending funeral

Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip resulted in the deaths of at least 14 Palestinians. A drone strike on a funeral procession in the Nuseirat refugee camp killed eight people and injured at least 20 others. The mourners were gathered outside the Ahmad Yassin Mosque for a Palestinian killed in a separate attack earlier that day. The Israeli military confirmed the strike, stating it targeted a "terrorist" cell and that the results are under review due to claims of uninvolved individuals being harmed. Hamas condemned the strike, calling it a "heinous crime" and accusing Israel of violating the ceasefire. The article notes that Israel continues to violate the ceasefire with Hamas on a near-daily basis.

Israeli strike on Gaza funeral killed at least seven people, hospital says

An Israeli strike on a funeral in the Gaza Strip's Nuseirat refugee camp killed at least seven people and injured 22, according to Al-Awda hospital. The funeral was for a Palestinian killed in an earlier Israeli attack that day. The Israeli military has not yet commented. The article notes that since an October ceasefire, Gaza's health ministry reports over 1,123 Palestinians killed in Gaza, and an independent UN inquiry has found Israel continues to commit genocide. Militants have attacked troops, and Israel states its strikes are in response to violations. The war began after a Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.
