Nasser Hospital received the five bodies from the Khan Younis area, while Shifa Hospital reported three deaths in Gaza City, Associated Press reports. Reuters says the Interior Ministry described the five Khan Younis victims as police officers.

Israel's military says it targeted several militants in Khan Younis. That explanation does not verify every victim's identity. The casualty figures and characterisations remain attributed to their sources; they concern these two attacks and are not a comprehensive daily total.

AFP's toll includes three people killed in Rafah, a wounded person who later died and one person killed in Khan Younis. Earlier, WAFA had reported three killed in a strike on an economy ministry facility in Rafah and a death in Khan Younis.

Asked by AFP, the Israeli military said it had targeted fighters and promised further details. That response does not identify the victims. The tolls remain attributed to local services and should not be added to earlier counts from the same day.
