Three-Year-Old Khaled Al-Maghari Injured in Israeli Strike on Al-Bureij Refugee Camp

In the early hours of last night, a devastating Israeli airstrike hit the densely populated Al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza, leaving a trail of destruction and casualties. Among the injured was three-year-old Khaled Al-Maghari, whose small frame was pulled from the rubble by frantic family members and neighbors.

Khaled, his body bearing the marks of the explosion, now waits his turn for medical care in the overwhelmed facilities of a local hospital. His eyes struggle to stay open as he lies on a makeshift bed, surrounded by other victims of the strike. The hospital, like many others in Gaza, is grappling with a surge of patients and limited resources, making the wait for treatment agonizingly long.

The airstrike, one of many in the recent escalation of violence between Israel and Gaza, targeted what Israeli authorities described as militant infrastructure. However, the impact on civilians has been severe, with homes and lives shattered indiscriminately.
