Six more people were killed in an Israeli attack on Gaza City's Tuffah neighborhood between 10:04 AM and 10:34 AM UTC on September 20th, 2025, bringing the total reported deaths for the day to 51, according to Al Jazeera English. The Israeli army intensified land operations and air strikes in Gaza City throughout September 19th and into the current reporting window, with advances reported near or inside the Victory, Al-Tarj, and Sheikh Radwan neighborhoods, as well as the Gaza historical port area and adjacent areas under Israeli control, according to ArabOSINT. Earlier on September 20th, Al Jazeera reported at least 44 deaths since dawn. Separately, activist Hamza Al-Masry claimed on social media that Hamas militia, not Israeli forces, were responsible for destruction and deaths, alleging that over 90 Hamas militants attacked a house on Al-Nafaq Street with missiles and shells, killing five displaced residents. Al-Masry also posted images of a booby-trapped vehicle on Al-Nafaq Street. No independent verification of these specific accusations against Hamas has been provided. In related international developments, the United States is planning to sell nearly $6 billion worth of weapons to Israel, according to a report published on September 19th, 2025, by The Telegraph, amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
