An unidentified young Palestinian man was killed and several others were injured when an Israeli drone struck a gathering in the Tuffah neighborhood, northeast of Gaza City, WAFA said, citing medical sources.
Meanwhile, Israeli military vehicles opened heavy fire in areas south of Khan Younis, while Israeli artillery shelled eastern areas of Gaza City, the agency reported.
The latest attacks add to continued Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement that has been in effect in the Gaza Strip since Oct. 10, 2025.
Earlier, four Palestinians were killed and several others injured in Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, according to medical sources.
According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, Israeli ceasefire violations have killed 1,493 Palestinians and wounded 5,299 others since the agreement took effect, underscoring the continued toll of Israeli military operations on Palestinians in the territory devastated by the genocide in Gaza.
