Four Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in Gaza amid ongoing tent attacks

Here is a rewritten version of the article in a neutral newsroom style:

Israeli forces have restricted access to Al-Aqsa Mosque and blocked the call to prayer at the Ibrahimi Mosque, according to reports from Palestinian news agency Wafa. In Gaza, an Israeli drone strike killed at least two people and wounded one more in the al-Salatin area. Additionally, a tent sheltering displaced Palestinians in Khan Younis was bombed by Israeli warplanes, wounding several individuals who were taken to hospital.

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) reported that it assisted in transferring 14 Palestinians held captive by Israel from the Kerem Abu Salem crossing to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza. The ICRC also facilitated contact and reunions with families for those detainees.

According to the ICRC, Israel has not allowed access to Palestinian detainees held in Israeli detention centers since October 2023. The organization is calling on authorities to disclose the fate and whereabouts of all detainees, allow visits, and ensure they can communicate with their families.

Gaza’s Health Ministry reported that at least four Palestinians were killed and several others wounded in Israel’s assault on the enclave. Since October 7, 2023, Israel’s actions have resulted in the deaths of at least 73,054 Palestinians and injuries to 173,480 more.

In occupied East Jerusalem, 110 Israeli settlers stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque under heavy police protection. The Islamic Waqf Department reported that settlers entered through the Mughrabi Gate, toured the courtyards, and performed rituals in the eastern area of the compound. Palestinian worshippers were restricted from entering the mosque, with some being harassed or having their identity cards confiscated.

In other areas, Israeli forces blocked the call to prayer at the Ibrahimi Mosque for the eighth consecutive day, according to Wafa reports. In Hebron, a young Palestinian man was shot in the foot with live ammunition during a raid on Qalandiya camp. Two others were arrested by Israeli forces in occupied Jerusalem.

Additionally, Israeli forces raided several locations in Bethlehem and Nablus, arresting individuals and destroying property. The Palestinian NGO Network has warned that Israel is escalating its attacks on medical workers and civil society organizations.
