Sources in Gaza said an Israeli quadcopter drone killed three Palestinians in Khan Younis, and a Palestinian woman was wounded by Israeli gunfire in the al-Batn al-Sameen area. Gaza’s Ministry of Interior said Khan Younis police chief Lieutenant Colonel Mahmoud Al-Astal was killed by gunfire from a car in the al-Mawasi area, and security services opened an investigation. The ministry said the shooters were “agents of the occupation” and suggested they were likely in an anti-Hamas militia working with the Israeli military; a militia leader claimed responsibility. Gaza’s Ministry of Health said more than 440 Palestinians have been killed and over 1,200 wounded since an October 10 ceasefire began.
