Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have resulted in the deaths of at least five people, including a nine-year-old boy. The child, Adel al-Najjar, was reportedly collecting firewood near Khan Younis when he was killed by Israeli fire. Nasser hospital authorities confirmed the incident.
Separately, four men were killed in an Israeli strike on a vehicle in Gaza City. The Israeli army stated it targeted "a terrorist" in the area.
In a related development, eighty-one sick and injured children, accompanied by their families, have been evacuated from Gaza to Jordan for medical treatment. They are receiving care in Amman, with the Jordanian initiative aiming to treat 2,000 children. Many require complex procedures such as amputations and bone grafts.
