Palestinian hospital officials have reported that Israeli airstrikes in the southern city of Rafah in the Gaza Strip have resulted in the deaths of at least five individuals. Among the casualties were two children, identified as Sham Najjar, 6, and Jamal Nabahan, 8.
Additionally, four people were killed in central Gaza due to Israeli tank shelling as they attempted to move to northern Gaza, where Israel's military is restricting access to homes. The ongoing conflict has forced more than half of Gaza's 2.3 million population to seek refuge in Rafah.
