Palestinian officials and medics report that an Israeli airstrike kills Brigadier-General Abdel-Nasser al-Maqadma, the head of Gaza’s northern police force and also described as governor of northern Gaza. Sources quoted by multiple outlets say the strike hits the Sheikh Radwan area north of Gaza City. One report adds that the Gaza Strip’s health ministry attributes the death to an Israeli attack.
The same reporting also mentions other casualties. In central Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp, medics say a Palestinian medic is killed in a separate attack. They also report that a police officer dies from wounds sustained in an attack the previous week.
In recent months, Israel has carried out strikes affecting members of Gaza’s police, including senior figures, according to the outlets’ summaries, with Israel describing those officials as Hamas fighters. The accounts rely on Palestinian and medical sources; no independent assessment of the claims is included in the provided excerpts. The situation remains part of ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestinian armed groups in Gaza.
