Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Israeli Airstrike Kills Family of Six in Gaza City
Caption: Israeli Airstrike Kills Family of Six in Gaza City. An Israeli airstrike killed a family of six in Gaza City's Sabra neighbourhood, according to Palestinian medics, after their home was hit and set on fire. The victims were identified as Firas Al-Masri, his wife Salsabeel, and their four children, all of whom died in the attack. The Israeli military said the strike targeted a Hamas militant and that it was reviewing the outcome of the operation. The incident comes amid continued Israeli military operations in Gaza despite ongoing diplomatic efforts to secure a lasting ceasefire. Palestinian health officials say more than 1,150 people have been killed in Israeli attacks since the most recent ceasefire agreement, with civilians making up the majority of the reported casualties. Israel maintains that its operations are directed against Hamas militants and says it seeks to minimise civilian harm, while acknowledging that some strikes are under review. The war began after Hamas's 7 October 2023 attack on Israel, which killed about 1,200 people and resulted in around 250 hostages being taken, prompting Israel's military campaign in Gaza.
