Seven killed, including children, in Israeli airstrikes on Gaza
According to local medical sources, five people — including two women and a child — were killed when Israeli warplanes struck a tent sheltering displaced families in the Al-Mawasi area west of Khan Younis. Several others sustained injuries in the same attack.
In a separate airstrike, two children were killed and more civilians were wounded when Israeli forces targeted the home of the Azzam family near the Daloul petrol station in the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood of Gaza City.
Meanwhile, Israeli forces continued to demolish residential buildings in central Khan Younis. Heavy artillery shelling was also reported in the Al-Mawasi area of Rafah, compounding the already dire humanitarian situation in southern Gaza.
The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 56,412 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 133,054 others injured.
Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.

Berlin summons Iranian ambassador over arrest of alleged spy
The German foreign ministry said Tuesday it had summoned the Iranian ambassador in Berlin after a man was arrested in Denmark on suspicion of spying on Jews in Germany. "We will not tolerate any threat to Jewish life in Germany," the ministry said in a post on X, adding that the allegations needed to be "thoroughly investigated". Earlier today, German prosecutors said Tuesday a suspect had been detained in Denmark on suspicion of spying on Jewish organisations and people in Berlin for Iranian intelligence services. The Danish suspect, identified only as Ali S., had "received an order from an Iranian intelligence service to collect information on Jewish localities and specific Jewish individuals" in the city, the German federal prosecutor's office said in a statement. According to the Federal Prosecutor's Office, Ali S. was instructed by Iranian operatives to collect intelligence on Jewish locations and specific individuals in the German capital. He is believed to have conducted surveillance on three properties in June. Prosecutors said the reconnaissance activities may have been in preparation for 'further intelligence operations in Germany, potentially including terrorist attacks on Jewish targets.' German news outlet Der Spiegel reported that the suspect photographed several sites, including the offices of the German-'Israeli' Society in Berlin. Investigators believe Ali S. was working for the Quds Force, the external operations unit of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. In September, German police shot and killed an Austrian national allegedly planning an attack on the 'Israeli' consulate in Munich, citing his ties to extremist Islamist groups. Germany has also been closely monitoring suspected Iranian espionage activities. In late 2023, a German-Iranian national was sentenced to prison over a foiled plot to attack a synagogue in the western city of Bochum—an operation authorities say was coordinated with Iranian state-linked actors.
