Israel´s occupying forces violated the active ceasefire agreement by killing 22 Palestinians and wounding dozens of civilians across the besieged Gaza Strip during intense military bombardments over the last 24 hours.


Local sources reported that Israeli aviation bombed a civilian vehicle near the Sharia Court in central Gaza City. This direct military action immediately killed four civilians, reinforcing the continuous pattern of systematic hostility against the urban infrastructure of the Gaza Strip.

A secondary airstrike targeted Al-Thawra Street in the western Al-Rimal neighborhood of the Gaza capital. This violent aggression killed three Palestinian citizens and wounded six others, who were rushed to nearby medical facilities with varying degrees of trauma.

In the north, an explosion near the Yemen Al-Saeed Hospital in the Jabalia refugee camp killed a young Palestinian man. This victim joined a tragic family record, as his father and three brothers had been killed in prior bombardments.

Furthermore, medical officials confirmed that two critically ill patients died from severe wounds sustained during previous military incursions. One victim, Ahmed Momen al-Najjar, succumbed today to severe trauma caused by a recent bombing in the Jabalia camp.

The second deceased victim was identified as Saeed Ahmed al-Batsh, who died one month after sustaining severe injuries. His death highlights the collapse of the local healthcare system, which is unable to save lives due to medical shortages.

Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza has killed 73,356 people, with 174,185 wounded, since October 2023, according to the Health Ministry of the besieged enclave. Israel has killed at least 1,230 people since the “ceasefire” went into effect.

Ceasefire Agreement Systematically Broken

These latest deaths raise the total number of Palestinians killed since the start of the ceasefire on October 11 to 1,230. During these 298 days of the nominal truce, emergency teams have also recorded 4,076 civil injuries.

Rescue workers recovered 804 bodies from the rubble of destroyed residential homes during this same truce period. These figures prove that despite international mechanisms, the Palestinian population remains subjected to systematic destruction and constant military violence.

Since the beginning of the current military offensive on October 7, 2023, human losses have reached catastrophic dimensions. Official medical reports confirm that 73,356 Palestinians have been killed directly by the actions of the Israeli occupation forces.

Additionally, the total number of wounded individuals in the enclave has reached 174,185 victims. These statistical records show the severity of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, which is fueled by the absolute impunity of the aggressor.

Civil movements and international solidarity groups continue to demand immediate global action to halt the genocide. They emphasize the necessity of ending the illegal occupation of Palestine and prosecuting those responsible for systematic war crimes.

The systematic destruction of hospitals and residential blocks has left millions of citizens without shelter or access to basic surgical attention. The continuous shelling of civilian cars and streets prevents the normal distribution of humanitarian aid in Gaza.
