Over the weekend, a premature fetus was recovered from the rubble after an Israeli airstrike killed its pregnant mother. In another strike, 4 people were killed in their car. These are just some of the scenes emerging from Gaza this weekend—losses no one should have to witness, especially when the victims are their own loved ones.

Palestinians in Gaza are already struggling each day for basic necessities while living under the constant threat of Israeli military attacks. They should not also have to endure the trauma of watching their loved ones suffer and die in unimaginable ways.
Today, Palestinians held a mass funeral for more than 100 members of two extended families killed in a single Israeli strike in 2023. Their bodies could not be recovered until now because of shortages of equipment and fuel. The funeral was held in the ruins of Gaza City's Al-Sabra neighborhood, where the families once lived.
Over the weekend, Israeli airstrikes killed at least 25 Palestinians. On Saturday, the strikes killed 7 people across Gaza. On Sunday, at least 18 Palestinians were killed by Israeli airstrikes in Gaza City where the unborn baby was recovered, as well as in Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis. An Israeli strike hit a car on Salah al-Din Road in central Gaza, killing four Palestinians.
Meanwhile, thousands of displaced Palestinians across Gaza are enduring an extreme heat wave in makeshift tents with little access to drinking water. More than 350,000 families remain without temporary shelter, while hundreds more are displaced each day as Israeli forces expand the areas under their control and restrict Palestinians' access.
Despite the Israeli government's so-called ceasefire, the death toll from Israeli attacks continues to rise. In July, 152 people were killed in Israeli attacks, the highest monthly death toll of 2026 according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
