Gaza City: Four Palestinians, including an elderly woman, were killed on Sunday by Israeli occupation forces in the Gaza Strip.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, medical sources reported that three individuals were taken to the Baptist Hospital in Gaza City after the Israeli army opened fire on a group of civilians near the Malika site, east of Gaza. The incident involved soldiers stationed east of the city who reportedly fired on people returning to their homes near the east of Kuwait roundabout.
