Israeli forces killed at least eight people in Khan Younis, including three civilian bystanders, during an attack on a police vehicle. The incident occurred after security forces intervened to break up a fight in the area.
A separate attack in Gaza City killed two police officers. Another bombing in Beit Lahiya killed two people in a house. The Gaza Ministry of Interior reported these strikes as part of a pattern targeting local police.
The ministry condemned the attacks, stating that police provide essential services to civilians and are protected under international law. It called on the international community to act, warning that silence enables further targeting of civilian institutions.
