Israeli Forces Kill at Least 12 Palestinians in Gaza

HeadlineApr 27, 2026

In Gaza, Israeli forces killed at least 12 Palestinians on Friday, including eight people killed when Israeli forces struck a police vehicle in Khan Younis. A separate attack in Gaza City killed two police officers. Two others were killed in the bombing of a house in Beit Lahia in northern Gaza. Since the U.S.-brokered ceasefire last year, Israel has killed at least 984 Palestinians. This is Alaa Jaber. His brother was killed in an Israeli attack on Friday.

Alaa Jaber: “They should find a solution. Enough. They should find a solution. Where is the new government? Where is the new government? Where is it? You hear of five, 10 martyrs every day. Where? The Israelis advance on us, fire and projectiles. And we are living in the east of Gaza close to death. Where should we go?”
