At least seven Palestinians were wounded by Israeli fire near aid distribution centers in southern Gaza between 7:35 AM and 8:05 AM UTC on October 7th, 2025, according to Gaza's ambulance and emergency officials. The incident occurred amidst ongoing Israeli military operations in the region. This development follows earlier reports from this morning, including an incident where a child was killed by Israeli bombing in Khan Younis. The current reporting window has focused on continued Israeli bombardments in southern Gaza. Earlier this morning, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated, "We are approaching the end of the Gaza war." The previous reporting period, from 7:06 AM to 7:35 AM UTC, also detailed Israeli aerial and artillery bombardments in southern Gaza. These strikes came after the military confirmed a rocket launched from the northern Gaza Strip struck near Netiv Haasara earlier in the day, landing in an open area without reported injuries or damage. On the second anniversary of the October 7th attacks, the conflict in Gaza remains active, with ongoing Israeli military operations. Previous reports indicated Israeli artillery bombardment of eastern and southern Gaza City regions between 12:06 AM and 1:09 AM UTC on October 7th, 2025. Yesterday, October 6th, 2025, President Donald Trump had expressed expectations of a Gaza deal, with Hamas reportedly agreeing to key points in negotiations involving Jared Kushner and Steve Whitkoff in Egypt.
