Israeli Strikes Kill at Least Seven Palestinians in Gaza

HeadlineJun 08, 2026

In Gaza, at least seven Palestinians were killed and 15 others injured on Saturday when Israel’s military bombed a large tent encampment in the heart of Gaza City. Children were among the dead and wounded. On Sunday, an Israeli strike on a police station and a vehicle killed at least nine people and wounded 20 others. The attacks come despite last October’s U.S.-brokered ceasefire. Since then, Israeli attacks have killed about 950 Palestinians. This is Abdul Salam Joudah, the uncle of a Palestinian killed in an Israeli strike over the weekend.

Abdul Salam Joudah: “We are ordinary citizens. We are looking for and asking for peace. We are neither calling for war nor destruction, nor anything else. We are people who believe in a just peace.”
