In a press statement, Hamas said that the Israeli army killed 10 of its members and two civilians, including a Palestinian woman, in strikes targeting a police security force that was carrying out humanitarian activities at the Shujaiya Sports Club. In another attack, the Israeli army "assassinated a police officer" after hitting his vehicle at the Al-Sanafour roundabout in the Shujaiya neighborhood, resulting in the deaths of seven people, said the statement.
