The Israeli military said it had targeted “terrorists” who were operating and then attempted to retrieve a drone. Gaza’s health ministry confirmed that nine people had been killed. Multiple people, some with critical injuries, were transported to Gaza’s Indonesian Hospital, the ministry said. Of those killed, three were part of a media team documenting humanitarian relief efforts in Gaza, according to the Palestinian Journalists’ Protection Center.
