Israeli strikes across Gaza on September 30, 2026 killed at least eight civilians according to multiple reports, with tolls varying between six and eight across separate incidents in Gaza City, Khan Younis and al-Mawasi. Strikes hit a passenger van, a residential apartment, a vehicle in the Tel al-Hawa neighborhood, and a crowd outside a mosque in Khan Younis, while a Palestinian journalist, Mohammed al-Najja, was killed by an Israeli drone strike in al-Mawasi. Gaza health officials and local reports described the attacks as continuing violations of the fragile ceasefire. Separately, BBC reported on a young Gaza girl, Raseel, who has undergone multiple surgeries to control infections after witnesses said her family's tent was hit by an Israeli helicopter strike; Israel's military said it had no record of the attack. The incidents underscore the persistence of deadly violence in Gaza despite the nominal ceasefire.
