  • Israeli soldiers in Hebron fatally shot a seven-month-old Palestinian baby, Sam Fahd Abu Haikal, and wounded his parents after their car complied with a stop order; the father disputes the military's claim that the vehicle accelerated toward troops.
  • Abu Haikal demands accountability, citing the clear visibility of the family during the daylight incident; the IDF expresses sorrow and states the event is under review, amid a pattern of civilian casualties in the West Bank, including a March incident that killed a family of four.
  • In Gaza, Israeli strikes killed at least nine people, including individuals described by Israel as Hamas commanders; one victim was a groom-to-be, highlighting ongoing violence and rare accountability for soldiers involved in Palestinian harm, per rights groups.
