Israeli Forces Kill at Least 11 Palestinians in Gaza

HeadlineApr 15, 2026

In Gaza, Israeli forces killed at least 11 Palestinians on Tuesday, including two children, in separate attacks. Four people were killed, including a 3-year-old, in a strike targeting a police vehicle in Gaza City, with at least nine bystanders wounded. Later that evening, another Israeli drone strike hit Shati refugee camp, killing several people. Gaza officials say 754 Palestinians have now been killed since October’s so-called ceasefire, brokered by the U.S. On Tuesday, Palestinians gathered at Al-Shifa Hospital to mourn 3-year-old Yahya Al-Malahi, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike.

Hader Al-Malahi: “This child, his father had him after girls. He is the only son for his father. What is his fault? What is his crime? He should be wearing a wedding suit today at his cousin’s wedding. Instead, he wore a shroud stained with blood. Only God can help us.”
