Israeli Attacks Kill at Least Four Palestinians in Gaza

HeadlineNov 05, 2026

In the Gaza Strip, Al Jazeera is reporting that Israeli military gunfire has killed a Palestinian child in the Bureij refugee camp. Israeli attacks have killed at least four Palestinians so far today. According to the Geneva-based Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, 1,134 children in Gaza have lost limbs in Israeli attacks since 2023. Israeli travel restrictions are also keeping hundreds of them from getting specialized care abroad. Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor says that Israel is blocking the equipment and specialist teams needed to make and fit artificial limbs inside Gaza, where only eight certified prosthetics professionals remain. The organization warned, “Continued denial of treatment, rehabilitation, and appropriate education risks turning the harm these children face now into lifelong deprivation. Gaps in medical follow-up and failure to adjust prosthetic limbs as the children grow may cause further complications, chronic pain, and increased difficulty moving.”
