Ten killed in Israeli strikes on Gaza, military says it targeted Hamas commander

Ten people were killed in Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, the Gaza Civil Defense reported on Saturday. The Israeli military claimed it killed a "cell commander" from Hamas's military wing in the Palestinian enclave.

The Gaza Civil Defense stated that eight people died and 15 were injured in a drone attack on the Jazawat refugee camp in Gaza City. Al-Shifa Hospital confirmed receiving eight bodies, including three women, though their ages were not specified. The Israeli military confirmed targeting "terrorists" in the area.

In that sector, we targeted terrorists.

Further south, 25-year-old Muhand Otman Farwana was killed in what the Hamas-controlled Civil Defense called an "attack on a refugee tent." The Israeli military described the strike on Farwana as "precise," identifying him as a "cell commander" in the armed wing of the Palestinian movement.

Both Israel and Hamas accuse each other of almost daily violations of the ceasefire that took effect in October 2025 under U.S. pressure. Health services in Gaza report at least 951 Palestinians have died since October, while the Israeli military reported five soldiers killed in the same period. Restrictions on media access to Gaza prevent independent verification of casualty figures and reporting on the conflict, according to Agence France-Presse.
