Three, Including a Journalist, Killed in Israeli Attacks Across Gaza in Yet Another Ceasefire Violation

Date:

GAZA CITY — Three Palestinians were killed on Tuesday in Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip, marking another violation of the ceasefire that took effect in early October. Among the victims was a journalist, who was killed in an Israeli drone strike.

Medical sources confirmed that Israeli forces killed two Palestinians in central Gaza’s Al-Bureij camp and Gaza City’s Zeitoun neighborhood.

Photojournalist Mahmoud Wadi was also killed in a drone attack in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis.

Earlier, the Palestinian Civil Defense in Gaza also said that Israeli forces besieged dozens of Palestinian families in their homes and in a building sheltering displaced people, under heavy fire and drone attacks, in the Sannafour area of the Tuffah neighborhood last night, injuring five civilians, including two children and a woman.

The team was able to evacuate the families in coordination with the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).

The military also detonated a booby-trapped robot in the al-Shaaf area east of Gaza City, conducted demolition operations on buildings in the northern part of the Strip, carried out air raids targeting Jabalia, and launched artillery shelling on the Bureij camp in the central Strip.

The attacks come in violation of the ceasefire agreement which took effect on October 10 and stated “all military operations, including aerial and artillery bombardment, will be suspended”.

Israel has violated the Gaza ceasefire at least 591 times in 50 days, killing hundreds of Palestinians since 10 October, according to the Gaza Government Media Office on Sunday.

The Office said about 357 civilians have been killed and 903 others injured in the violations, with children, women and the elderly accounting for the majority of the victims.

The Office added Israel shot at civilians 164 times, raided residential areas beyond the “yellow line” 25 times, bombed and shelled Gaza 280 times, and demolished people’s properties on 118 occasions. It added that Israel has also abducted 38 Palestinians from Gaza during the 50 days. — QNN
