Israeli Airstrike and West Bank Clashes Result in Five Palestinian Deaths

Analysed 23 Jul 2026·2 sources analysed·Gaza City, Palestine·Politics
Israeli Airstrike and West Bank Clashes Result in Five Palestinian DeathsPreviousNext

An Israeli airstrike in northern Gaza killed two Palestinians, while three others died in the West Bank amid violent incidents, according to Palestinian authorities and Israeli military officials. The West Bank deaths followed stabbing attacks on Israelis during clashes involving settlers and Palestinians near Beit Furik. Israel says its strikes target Hamas militants, with over 1,160 Palestinians and four Israeli soldiers killed since a ceasefire began in October. Tensions persist over settlement expansion and settler violence in the West Bank.
