Overview
- Local hospitals report more than 20 people killed and over 50 injured in multiple strikes despite a ceasefire in place since October 10.
- Hospital officials say one strike hit a vehicle in Gaza City’s Rima neighborhood, with 11 bodies taken to Al-Shifa and dozens injured, mostly children.
- The Israeli military says it targeted Hamas positions after an armed attacker crossed the ceasefire line via a humanitarian route and opened fire on soldiers.
- Israel reports killing five fighters emerging from a tunnel in Rafah and says two of four suspects who crossed the line in the north were shot dead.
- The Hamas-run civil defense says five strikes occurred and calls them a clear violation, as both sides continue to accuse each other of breaking the truce within a conflict rooted in the October 7, 2023 attacks and Israel’s subsequent campaign.
