Seven Killed in Israeli Strike During Funeral in Gaza, Hamas Condemns Attack

At least seven people were killed and 22 others injured in an Israeli strike during a funeral in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, according to hospital officials cited by The Associated Press (AP). The incident was reported by Al Jazeera.

Al-Awda Hospital in Nuseirat said the strike targeted people attending the funeral of a Palestinian who had been killed in an earlier Israeli attack.

Hamas strongly condemned the incident in a statement, describing it as a “heinous crime.” The group alleged that Israel continues to violate ceasefire arrangements systematically while carrying out attacks against civilians in Gaza, despite ongoing mediation efforts and international scrutiny.

There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military regarding the reported strike.
