The number of Palestinians medics say were killed by Israeli strikes and gunfire in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, November 10, has risen to at least seven, after a later strike hit a metal foundry in the Sabra neighbourhood of Gaza City and killed three people, Reuters reported in an updated account on Tuesday. Awaaz Punjab reported earlier on Tuesday that four people had been killed in the day's earlier strikes and gunfire; the Sabra foundry strike, which came later in the day, took the toll medics reported to at least seven. Every casualty figure in this report comes from Gaza medics and health officials, attributed as such, and the Israeli military's position is given where it has stated one.

The day's first deaths came in Gaza City. Medics said an Israeli airstrike hit the roof of a displacement shelter in the Zeitoun neighbourhood, killing a father and his 13-year-old son. A third Palestinian was killed in an airstrike near a school in the city's Daraj neighbourhood, health officials said. The Israeli military said it struck militants in both areas, without giving further details.

In Khan Younis, in the south of the Strip, Israeli gunfire killed a man, medics said — the fourth death reported from Tuesday's incidents before the Sabra strike. Jordan's Petra news agency, citing medical sources in Gaza, reported the same four deaths: the father and child in Zeitoun, the man near the school in Daraj, and the man killed by fire in Khan Younis.

The count then rose again. Al Jazeera reported at least six Palestinians killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza on Tuesday in its initial coverage, and the Associated Press, in its Tuesday roundup, reported that Israeli strikes and gunfire had killed five people in Gaza that day. The differing totals were filed at different points in the day, as further incidents were reported; Reuters' latest account, after the Sabra foundry strike, puts the day's toll at at least seven.

A ceasefire that keeps being tested
The deaths come despite the ceasefire that took effect in October 2025. Gaza's health ministry says Israeli attacks have killed 1,613 Palestinians and wounded 5,833 since that ceasefire began, according to Al Jazeera's reporting of the ministry's figures — a toll Israel disputes in individual cases, saying its forces target militants. A US-brokered reconstruction plan for Gaza has made little progress, the Associated Press reported, as negotiators have failed to agree on terms for Hamas to disarm or for Israel to withdraw its troops.
The same day, UNICEF said Israel's COGAT agency had rejected a $3 million plan to repair Gaza City's Sheikh Radwan stormwater basin, warning the sewage-contaminated facility could overflow in heavy rain, and the World Health Organization warned of communicable-disease risks from flooding and poor sanitation, with nearly 1 million displaced people facing medium or high flood risk.

What is solid
- Medics and health officials in Gaza reported a father and his 13-year-old son killed in a strike on a displacement-shelter roof in Zeitoun, one man killed near a school in Daraj, and one man killed by gunfire in Khan Younis on Tuesday (Reuters; Petra).
- Reuters' updated Tuesday account reported three more people killed in a strike on a metal foundry in the Sabra neighbourhood, taking the day's reported toll to at least seven.
What is only claimed
- The running total for Tuesday differs by when each outlet filed: Petra and the first Reuters account said four, the Associated Press said five, Al Jazeera said at least six, and Reuters' updated account said at least seven.
- The Israeli military said it struck militants in the Zeitoun and Daraj areas; it gave no further details, and its account of who was targeted cannot be independently verified from the reporting available.
Watch for any Israeli military statement on the Sabra foundry strike, updated tolls from Gaza's health authorities, and whether the repeated ceasefire violations change the stalled talks on disarmament, Israeli withdrawal and Gaza's reconstruction.
