Shuhada Al-Aqsa Mosque is located in Deir Al-Balah city in the central Gaza Strip. It is considered one of the prominent mosques in the region.
On October 6, 2024, Israeli occupation aircraft targeted Shuhada Al-Aqsa Mosque, which was sheltering displaced people and is located directly across from Shuhada Al-Aqsa Hospital. This resulted in the complete destruction of the mosque and a horrific massacre inside, where dozens of displaced individuals were martyred, in addition to several injuries.
