Gaza Ceasefire Under Strain as Israeli Fire Kills Three in Khan Younis

Humanitarian access remains restricted despite a U.S.-brokered truce.

Overview

  • Local medics reported three Palestinians shot dead in separate incidents in Khan Younis, including a 15-year-old boy and a fisherman said to be outside areas still under Israeli control.
  • Israeli forces confirmed ongoing operations targeting what they call terrorist infrastructure, citing tunnel strikes in Beit Lahiya and demolitions in Gaza City neighborhoods.
  • Gaza’s Health Ministry reports at least 71,386 people killed and more than 171,000 injured since October 2023, with 420 deaths recorded since the ceasefire took effect.
  • Reuters reports that militants have killed three Israeli soldiers during the truce period as Israel and Hamas continue to trade accusations of violations brokered by President Donald Trump.
  • Aid groups and UN testimony say large relief shipments remain blocked at Gaza’s border, and Israel has moved to ban organizations including Doctors Without Borders and the Norwegian Refugee Council.
