WAFA reported that on the evening of Sunday 11 October 2026 an Israeli airstrike hit a charging point in the southern Al-Buraq area west of Khan Younis, killing four Palestinians and injuring several others. Quds News separately said four were killed in a strike on a displacement tent in Khan Younis; Al Mayadeen reported an airstrike on a tent near Nasser Hospital with multiple casualties. Treating these as the same evening Khan Younis strike cluster with WAFA as the official locus; competing tent descriptions noted. No IDF confirmation in this window. On 13 October the IDF said that on Sunday 11 October it struck in the Khan Younis area and killed three members of Palestinian Islamic Jihad's military wing who it said were meeting to advance attacks on its troops: Muhammad Abu Hajjaj, Yousef Abu Razak and Abdelhamid Jadallah. The IDF gave no exact location or time, so it is not confirmed that its strike is the Al-Buraq strike described by WAFA; the three named men are recorded here as the IDF's claim only.
