SHOTLIST: GAZA, PALESTINE (JULY 30, 2026) 1. VARIOUS OF HEAVILY DAMAGED BUILDINGS, DESTROYED TENTS, DEBRIS AND RUBBLE IN SHATI REFUGEE CAMP / RESIDENTS, INCLUDING CHILDREN, LIVING AMONG RUBBLE WHILE SOME SEARCHING AROUND DESTRYOED TENTS AND DEBRIS FOR THEIR LOST ITEMSGAZA, PALESTINE - JULY 30, 2026: Israeli military airstrikes targeted several locations across the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, July 29, leaving two homes and a commercial building heavily damaged. The attacks also rendered tents housing displaced Palestinians uninhabitable, forcing affected residents to spend the night sleeping on the streets. Upon returning to the targeted areas in the early morning hours, residents were confronted with widespread devastation. In the face of the ongoing bombardments, local Palestinians stated that continued talk of a ceasefire was nothing but a lie. Seven Palestinians were injured after Israeli warplanes struck a residential building in the Shati refugee camp, west of Gaza City on Wednesday evening, medical and local sources said. The attack came amid continued Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement in force in the Palestinian enclave since Oct. 10, 2025. A medical source at Al-Shifa Hospital said seven people sustained injuries of varying severity in the strike. According to an Anadolu correspondent and eyewitnesses, Israeli warplanes carried out two airstrikes on a multi-story residential building in the southern part of Shati camp after residents received an evacuation warning. Local sources said one of the residents received a phone call from Israeli intelligence instructing him to evacuate the residential block, prompting widespread panic as families fled their homes. Witnesses said the strikes completely destroyed the building, which had previously been damaged during Israel’s military offensive, and caused extensive damage to dozens of nearby homes and residential buildings. A fire broke out following the strike, and civil defense teams extinguished the blaze, a Civil Defense source told Anadolu. Earlier Wednesday, three Palestinians were killed and at least 20 others injured in separate Israeli drone strikes and gunfire in Gaza City and Khan Younis, according to medical sources. Despite the ceasefire, Israeli attacks since Oct. 10, 2025, have killed 1,209 Palestinians and injured 3,943 others, most of them women and children, according to Palestinian authorities. Israel has continued its military offensive on Gaza since Oct. 8, 2023. According to Palestinian authorities, the war has killed more than 73,000 Palestinians and wounded over 174,000, while destroying around 90% of the enclave’s civilian infrastructure.
