A WAFA correspondent reported that a citizen was killed and others were injured in an Israeli drone strike on a home belonging to the Al-Sha'rawi family near the Al-Sawariha School, southwest of Nuseirat, in the central Gaza Strip.

Al-Awda Hospital in Nuseirat announced the arrival of the body of a slain and an injured person from Al-Sawariha area.

In a related development, a citizen was injured by Israeli drone fire on Al-Nazzaz Street in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood, coinciding with artillery shelling targeting the eastern Shuja'iyya and Al-Tuffah neighborhoods, east of Gaza City.

This morning, medical sources reported that the death toll from the Israeli airstrike on a home belonging to the Rayyan family near the Tal al-Rabi' School in the town of Beit Lahia, north of the Gaza Strip, had risen to nine.

The sources added that two citizens were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a house in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood.
