Gaza’s central city of Deir al‑Balāḥ was hit by an Israeli airstrike on 26 March near tents sheltering displaced Palestinians, killing at least one person and injuring seven others, according to Al‑Aqsa Hospital. The attack matters because Deir al‑Balāḥ has become a refuge for families displaced by months of war, and even areas used for shelter are increasingly exposed to danger.
