Six Palestinians Killed in Israeli Airstrikes in Gaza Strip
Six Palestinians, including a 10-year-old girl, were killed in Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip on Saturday. The strikes targeted sites belonging to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) militant group. The IDF stated that the strikes were in response to rocket fire launched from Gaza into Israeli territory earlier in the day. The PIJ confirmed that its operatives were involved in the rocket fire and that some of its commanders were among those killed in the airstrikes. The strikes occurred amid heightened tensions in the region, following a period of relative calm. The Israeli military reported that several rockets were fired from Gaza towards southern Israel, with air defense systems intercepting some of them. No casualties were reported in Israel from the rocket attacks. The situation remains tense, with concerns about further escalation.
