Third-year student Khaled Al-Muhtasibb was killed in Jerusalem, and the university said details of what happened are still unclear.

Hamas, the militant Palestinian group that rules the Gaza strip, began an attack on Israel on Oct. 7, the start of what it called “Operation Al-Aqsa Flood,” stating that it had fired over 5,000 rockets from the Gaza Strip into Israel within a span of 20 minutes.
