The Israeli army killed at least three Palestinians and wounded several others in separate attacks across the Gaza Strip on September 3, 2026. These incidents occurred despite a ceasefire that took effect in October 2025.
In Gaza City, a drone strike on Al-Thawra Street targeted civilians near the Near East Council of Churches building, resulting in one death. In Beit Lahia, Israeli gunfire killed two Palestinians, including one person in a strike on tents housing displaced civilians. Additionally, gunfire wounded a Palestinian in a displaced persons camp in Khan Younis.
The Israeli army acknowledged killing one individual in northern Gaza, describing the person as an "armed individual who crossed the Yellow Line" and posed an "immediate threat."
The United Nations human rights office reported that 24 Palestinians were killed in Israeli attacks between August 28 and September 1, including four children and a woman. The office asserted that "there is no safe place, nor safe person, in Gaza."
