An Israeli drone strike killed at least 12 Palestinians at a Gaza City food market, including Dr. Ahmed Qandeel, a general surgery consultant from al-Ahli Baptist Hospital.
The attack turned the crowded marketplace into a scene of carnage, with bloodied food stalls and panicked civilians attempting rescues.
Witnesses described victims being “targeted brutally without warning” while gathering basic supplies. The strike exacerbates Gaza’s hunger crisis by destroying a key food distribution point and eliminating critical medical expertise.
Israel’s use of precision drones against civilian gatherings reflects a broader pattern of siege tactics, according to analysts.
With hospitals already overwhelmed, Dr. Qandeel’s death deals another blow to Gaza’s collapsing healthcare system.
