Death of a player in Gaza raises the number of Palestinian sports figures killed to 1016 since the start of the war

Khan Younis, Palestine ·

The Palestinian Football Association said the 15-year-old, a player at the Al-Najma sports academy, was killed on Friday by Israeli army gunfire while playing football with peers in the Mawasi area of Khan Younis, in southern Gaza. The association put the total number of Palestinian sports movement deaths since the start of the war at 1016.

Israel's military has been fighting in the Gaza Strip since October 2023, when Hamas-led attacks on southern Israel started the war. The Gaza Strip, home to about two million Palestinians, has seen a large civilian death toll.
