Recent fatalities reported following Israeli military operations in the West Bank and Gaza

On September 15, 2026, a 54-year-old Palestinian, Ziad Muhammad Jaber, was killed during an Israeli military raid in the city of al-Bireh in the West Bank. Family members reported that soldiers breached their home, restrained individuals inside, and conducted arrests. Meanwhile, in the Gaza Strip, Israeli airstrikes targeting a vehicle in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood killed at least two people, including a child. The military stated these strikes aimed at combatants, while witnesses reported secondary hits on civilians attempting to assist the victims. In a separate incident on September 16, a residential building collapsed in western Gaza, resulting in at least eight confirmed deaths and leaving over 60 people missing.

The collapsed structure was housing displaced families and had sustained prior damage from ongoing military operations. Civil defense teams are continuing search and rescue efforts among the debris. The conflict, which began following the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack, continues to escalate, with significant infrastructure destruction reported across the Gaza Strip. The Israeli military has indicated it is reviewing the circumstances of the West Bank raid, while no further status updates were provided regarding the ongoing rescue operations in Gaza.
