ISTANBUL - Malak Haniyeh, the granddaughter of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, succumbed on Monday to injuries sustained in an Israeli strike that killed other family members on the first day of the Muslim festival of Eid-al-Fitr, medical sources told Anadolu Agency.

Three sons of Ismail, along with several of his grandchildren, were killed on Wednesday in an Israeli airstrike in a refugee camp in western Gaza City.

The Israeli airstrike targeted a car carrying members of the Ismail family in the Al-Shati refugee camp as they were giving good wishes to the camp's residents for the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr, eyewitnesses told Anadolu.

Medical sources told Anadolu that the airstrike resulted in the deaths of three of Ismail’s sons -- Hazem, Amir, and Mohammed -- as well as several of their own children, in addition to injuring others.

Israel has waged a deadly military offensive on the Gaza Strip since Oct 7, 2023, killing more than 33,700 Palestinians and injuring nearly 76,400 others amid mass destruction and shortages of necessities. - BERNAMA
