Despite the declared ceasefire, Israeli forces have continued military operations across Gaza, the West Bank, and southern Lebanon, drawing renewed criticism over what observers describe as a systematic violation of truce terms.
In central Gaza’s Bureij refugee camp, Israeli air raids killed one Palestinian man and demolished several residential structures in the south, according to Gaza’s local authorities. The Health Ministry in Gaza reported receiving the bodies of 15 Palestinians handed over by Israel via the Red Cross, raising the total number of Palestinians confirmed killed during the ceasefire period to 300.
Munir al-Bursh, director of Gaza’s Health Ministry, warned that the enclave’s healthcare system is on the brink of total collapse, citing a “catastrophic shortage of essential medicines” as the most alarming sign of institutional failure after months of blockade and bombardment.
Meanwhile, Hamas announced it had recovered the remains of deceased Israeli soldier Hadar Goldin in Rafah — a move likely to add tension to ceasefire negotiations.
Across the occupied West Bank, Israeli settlers launched a series of coordinated attacks on Palestinian farmers and journalists near Nablus, injuring several. Israeli forces also conducted new night raids in multiple areas, including the Far’a refugee camp south of Tubas, where one Palestinian man was shot dead and several others were detained.
The escalation has not been confined to Palestinian territories. In southern Lebanon, Israel carried out three aerial strikes, killing at least three people and injuring seven others, according to Lebanon’s National News Agency. The attacks mark a further widening of the conflict beyond Gaza, threatening to ignite a broader regional confrontation.
As ceasefire violations mount and humanitarian conditions deteriorate, regional and international actors have yet to enforce accountability or deliver meaningful relief to the besieged population of Gaza.
