  • At least 38 people were killed in the latest airstrikes, including a mother and her two children sheltering in a tent, bringing the death toll since March 2025 to 3,785.
  • Pediatrician Alaa Najjar lost nine of her ten children in a Friday airstrike on her home in Khan Younis; her surviving child and husband remain critically injured.
