Summary

An Israeli airstrike struck an apartment in the Al-Rimal neighborhood of Gaza City, killing a 33-year-old Palestinian woman, Reem Asaad Awad, and injuring two others. The strike ignited a fire in the apartment. Her three-year-old daughter, Maryam Ahmed Ghanem, was trapped in the burning apartment and was rescued by Palestinian journalist Ali al-Jaafrawi. The child was treated for burns at Al-Shifa Hospital and is now orphaned. Israel claimed the strike targeted a Hamas operative but provided no evidence to support this assertion. The incident occurred in the early morning hours in western Gaza City.
