GAZA CITY, Palestine

A Palestinian was killed, and two others were injured on Sunday morning in an Israeli strike that targeted a civilian gathering in the Wadi Gaza area in the central Gaza Strip, as part of Tel Aviv’s daily violations of the ceasefire agreement in force since Oct. 10, 2025.

The attack comes after two days of deadly escalation in which Israel killed 37 Palestinians in strikes on shelters, tents housing displaced people, a police center, and residential apartments.

A medical source at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza told Anadolu that one Palestinian was killed and two others were wounded in an Israeli strike in the Wadi Gaza area.

Eyewitnesses told Anadolu that an Israeli drone targeted a civilian gathering north of Wadi Gaza with at least one missile. The area had been previously evacuated by the Israeli army under the ceasefire agreement.

In a separate incident, witnesses said the Israeli army carried out demolition operations within areas of its deployment and control northeast of Gaza City in accordance with the agreement, coinciding with heavy gunfire from military vehicles and cranes.

Israeli military vehicles also opened fire west of Rafah city and east of the Bureij refugee camp in areas under army control, while Israeli naval forces fired toward the sea off the northern Gaza coast.

According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, the Israeli army has killed about 509 Palestinians and wounded 1,405 others since Oct. 11, 2025.

The agreement ended a two-year Israeli war that killed nearly 71,800 Palestinians and wounded more than 171,400. The assault has destroyed roughly 90% of the civilian infrastructure in Gaza, with UN estimates placing reconstruction costs at about $70 billion.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
