An Israeli airstrike hit the al-Sabra neighborhood in southern Gaza City on 9 October 2025. Four Palestinians were killed in the attack, which targeted a residential area.
The strike occurred despite a recently announced ceasefire agreement. The deal, brokered by the United States, Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey, was due to take effect within hours.
The attack left 40 people missing, with search and rescue operations ongoing. Medical sources reported the death toll in the Gaza Strip had reached 29 by Thursday evening.
