Israel kills seven Palestinians in violation of Gaza ceasefire

Israeli forces killed at least seven Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, in violation of the ceasefire agreement signed last week.

According to local health officials, six people were killed in Gaza City and one in Khan Younis.

In Gaza City’s eastern Shujaiya neighbourhood, at least five people were killed in an aerial attack while inspecting their homes, according to the Palestinian Civil Defence.

Separately, a drone strike in the town of al-Fukhari, east of Khan Younis, killed one person.

These attacks constitute a breach of the ceasefire agreement that took effect on Friday, which explicitly stated that “all military operations, including aerial and artillery bombardment and targeting operations, will be suspended”.
