Two Palestinians reported killed in Israeli drone strikes in Gaza, several injured

What happened

Palestinian news agency WAFA reported that two Palestinians were killed and several others injured in two separate Israeli drone strikes in Gaza. One strike hit a group near the Asqula junction, east of Gaza City; another struck near the Abu Sharkh roundabout west of Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza.

Outside Brief is treating this as a source-led account. Any disputed responsibility, casualty figure, battlefield claim or single-source assertion should be treated as unconfirmed/hearsay unless confirmed by another reliable source or a named official. According to WAFA, some of the injured in the northern Gaza strike are in critical condition. The Palestinian health ministry has said that Israeli forces’ violations of the ceasefire since its implementation in October 2025 have killed at least 1,066 people and wounded 3,445 others, though these figures have not been independently verified in the supplied material.

The details about the strikes, including their timing, specific targets, and responsible actors, come from Palestinian sources and are not independently confirmed by the supplied context. No information in the source clarifies if these strikes are isolated incidents or part of a larger pattern of recent attacks.
