Out of the many Israeli attacks,this was the first fatal attack in the Gaza Strip confirmed by Israel in span of one month as unilateral ceasefires declared by each side after observing the December-January offenses in the territory.

According to medics working at a hospital where Nazir was being treated,a third man was also wounded in the incident,
