The Israeli occupation forces continued violating the Gaza ceasefire agreement on Tuesday through gunfire, artillery shelling, and demolition operations across several areas of the Strip.
Palestinian sources reported that Israeli military vehicles opened heavy fire east of Khan Yunis in southern Gaza while artillery shelling targeted the area. Israeli drones were also seen flying at low altitude over the city.
Israeli occupation forces additionally fired smoke grenades and heavy gunfire near Salah al-Din Road at the Bani Suheila roundabout east of Khan Yunis.
In Gaza City, Israeli helicopters flew at low altitude over both the eastern and western parts of the city, heightening tensions among residents.
Israeli military vehicles also opened fire near the Wadi Gaza bridge north of the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. No injuries were immediately reported.
The latest incidents follow a series of deadly attacks on Monday in which five Palestinians, including a woman and two children, were killed in separate Israeli strikes across Gaza.
Among those killed were nurse Mohammed Al-Habil and his child after an Israeli drone strike targeted a home in the Abu Iskandar area of Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood. Palestinian Saleh Ramadan Khalifa was also killed when an Israeli strike hit a sewing tent near Al-Razi School in the Nuseirat refugee camp.
Medical sources reported that Nadia Kamal Ayyash was killed after an area adjacent to her home in Al-Zawayda, central Gaza, came under attack.
In another incident, child Ryan Bahaa Abu Al-Ajeen died from his injuries after Israeli forces opened fire on him and his father and detained them in the Wadi Al-Salqa area southeast of Deir al-Balah. The father was wounded and later released alongside his critically-wounded son.
Israeli occupation forces also continued artillery shelling east of Khan Yunis and reportedly expanded the so-called “Yellow Line” by moving concrete barriers farther west around the city.
