This incident comes amid increasing tensions due to the Israeli military attack on the Gaza Strip, following the October 7 attacks launched by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), which killed about 1,200 people, in addition to 240 hostages.
Israeli retaliation, which took the form of a military attack, led to the deaths of some 32,000 Palestinians, as well as more than 420 in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
