Israeli Forces Fatally Shoot Palestinian Man, Injure 4 Others in Gaza
(MENAFN) Israeli forces killed a Palestinian man and wounded four others, including two children and a displaced woman, across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, as they continued violating last year's ceasefire agreement, medical sources said.
A 26-year-old Palestinian was killed by Israeli forces in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, according to a medical source.
The same source reported that a displaced woman suffered moderate injuries after being shot in the Bir 19 area, southwest of the city. A 5-year-old child was also wounded by Israeli gunfire inside Mustafa Hafez School, which is being used as a shelter for displaced Palestinians in central Khan Younis.
Separately, another medical source confirmed that a fisherman sustained moderate gunshot wounds when Israeli naval forces opened fire on fishing boats off the Khan Younis coast.
Local sources said Israeli gunboats targeted fishing vessels with gunfire and artillery shells near the city's port, setting two boats on fire.
Another child was injured when Israeli military vehicles fired toward tents housing displaced Palestinians in the Batn al-Samin area, south of Khan Younis, the medical source added.
Witnesses also reported heavy Israeli artillery bombardment in areas south and east of Khan Younis, accompanied by sustained gunfire from military vehicles.
In central Gaza, Israeli military vehicles reportedly made a limited incursion southeast of the Maghazi refugee camp, with heavy shooting and artillery fire reported in the surrounding area.
Israeli forces also demolished evacuated homes and civilian buildings near the site of the incursion, according to local reports.
Since the ceasefire took effect on Oct. 10, 2025, Israeli attacks have killed 1,613 Palestinians and injured another 5,833, according to figures released by Gaza's Health Ministry.
Since October 2023, Israel's genocidal war on Gaza has claimed more than 74,000 Palestinian lives and left over 175,000 people wounded, most of them women and children. The offensive has also destroyed approximately 90% of the enclave's infrastructure.
