An Israeli naval strike targeted a seaside cafe in Gaza, killing more than 30 civilians, including women, children and journalists, as they sought respite from displacement camps. The attack—which hit without warning—turned the cafe, a vital hub for internet access and leisure, into a scene of horror: bloodstained tables, scattered shoes, and body parts wrapped in tablecloths. Survivors condemned the strike as part of a systematic “war on life” in Gaza, where at least 85 Palestinians were killed in total on Monday amid relentless assaults. Simultaneously, 15 Palestinians died at an aid distribution centre, while evacuation orders raised fears of further attacks. The cafe, hosting a children’s birthday party, had no military ties—only civilians torn apart by what witnesses called an “unpredictable foreign bomb.” With flesh still clinging to shattered furniture, the attack epitomised Gaza’s daily reality under siege.
