BEIRUT: Two Palestinian volleyball players, who turned out for the national team and Al-Sadaka Club, have been killed in an Israeli attack that targeted Jabalia Camp in the Gaza Strip.
The West Asian Volleyball Association mourned Hassan Abu Zuaiter and Ibrahim Qusaya’a on its Facebook page on Monday, shortly after Palestinian media reported the news of the tragedy.
