Israeli airstrike in Gaza City reported to kill woman

A woman was reported killed in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza City, according to the Palestinian news agency WAFA. The strike occurred during a military operation targeting a Hamas member, as confirmed by an Israeli military spokeswoman. The outcome of the strike is still under investigation.

The Israeli military also announced that it had killed a Hamas commander in an airstrike in Gaza City on Tuesday. The militant was identified as one of those responsible for abducting hostages from Israel and was allegedly preparing attacks on Israeli soldiers and civilians.

A Gaza war ceasefire has been in effect since October 2025, yet there have been repeated deadly attacks. Israel has recently intensified its airstrikes, claiming they target senior Hamas members, many of whom were involved in the Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the military to eliminate all remaining 2,000 people involved in the attacks. Israeli authorities stated that approximately 5,000 to 6,000 terrorists entered Israel on the day of the massacre.

Since the ceasefire, around 1,500 Palestinians have been killed, according to the Hamas-controlled health authority in the Gaza Strip. The Israeli newspaper Maariv reported that the army has killed approximately 750 members of terrorist organizations, including Hamas commanders, since the ceasefire.

Hamas has not retaliated for any of these targeted attacks, according to the report. The situation continues to unfold with ongoing military operations and civilian casualties, raising concerns about the humanitarian impact and the need for accountability and justice.
