Corroborated · Al-Batan al-Samin, Palestine ·
Two reports say Israeli forces fired on people in the Al-Batan al-Samin area of Khan Yunis, southern Gaza Strip. WAFA says a young man was killed and a woman and a child were injured. Middle East Observer says a young man was injured. The incident itself is not in doubt; the two differ on whether the young man was killed or injured.

Details by origin
Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
