Israel kills two Palestinians in new fresh strikes across Gaza

At least two Palestinians were killed and several others injured early on Sunday in Israeli artillery and air strikes in Gaza amid Tel Aviv's ongoing violations of a ceasefire deal in place since October 2025.

The bodies of two Palestinians killed in an Israeli artillery strike on a gathering of civilians on Kashko Street in Gaza City's Zeitoun neighbourhood arrived at al-Shifa Hospital, a medical source told Anadolu.

Palestinians, including women and children, were also wounded in an Israeli helicopter attack that targeted an apartment building on Eidiya Street, west of Gaza City, the same source said.

In a related incident, Israeli gunboats shelled the Gaza City coastline, while artillery fire and shooting from an Israeli helicopter targeted the eastern areas of the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza.

In the southern part of the enclave, a medical source reported that a Palestinian man sustained moderate injuries when Israeli forces opened fire near the Hamad residential complex, north of Khan Younis.

Eyewitnesses also reported that Israeli artillery shelling targeted the Sheikh Nasser area and the vicinity of the Bani Suheila roundabout, east of Khan Younis, but no casualties were reported.

Israel is continuing to violate the ceasefire agreement, which took effect on October 10, 2025.

For Palestinians living under Israeli shelling, incursions, and the near-total closure of border crossings, the ceasefire has become, as many say, an "illusion."

The restricted flow of humanitarian aid has further deepened an already severe humanitarian crisis across the besieged Palestinian territory.

According to the latest figures from the Gaza Health Ministry, Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement have killed 1,127 Palestinians and wounded 3,643 as of Thursday.

The agreement was reached after two years of a genocidal war launched by Israel on October 8, 2023.

The war continued in various forms, leaving more than 73,000 people dead and over 173,000 wounded, while causing massive destruction to 90 percent of civilian infrastructure.
