The killing in Gaza continues, despite President Donald Trump’s ceasefire.
Israel has killed more than 71,660 and injured 171,419 since the genocidal war began on 8 October 2023.
The Trump-backed ceasefire came into effect in October 2025, but since then, the IDF killed at least 486 and wounded 1,341. AA reported that 90 percent of civilian infrastructure has been destroyed and that it would take $70 billion to redevelop the enclave.
WEDNESDAY: Israel killed at least 11 Palestinians in strikes on the enclave, including three journalists and two children, Al Jazeera reported, citing Gaza’s Ministry of Health.
The journalists were reportedly filming new displacement camps in near the so-called Netzarim Corridor, the report said. The New York Times reported that Israel said these journalists were operating a drone that had ties to Hamas. The IDF said its forces felt threatened.
AFP, citing witnesses, reported that eyewitnesses said the journalists had been using the drone to film the distribution of aid by the Egyptian Relief Committee.
Mohammed Mansour, a spokesman for the Egyptian Relief Committee in the Gaza Strip, said one of the group’s vehicles had been “targeted during a humanitarian mission, resulting in the martyrdom of three individuals.”
CBS News reported that one of the journalists killed, Abed Shaat, had worked for years as a cameraman for the outlet.
THURSDAY: Israel killed another four Palestinians, despite the so-called ceasefire in place.
Palestinians have mocked Trump’s so-called Board of Peace.
Manal al-Qouqa, a displaced mother, told Al Jazeera that the “peace council they talk about does not exist in reality,” and continued, “Every time they announce something regarding the Palestinian people, our suffering only increases.”
She said, “What peace are they talking about, when on the ground there is neither peace nor security? We are living a real tragedy. I wish it were like the 1948 Nakba that we once lived through – this is a new, modern Nakba, advanced in every aspect of life. There are no basic necessities for living.”
FRIDAY: Israel killed another five people in Gaza.
SATURDAY: Israel killed three, including two boys who had been collecting firewood for their families.
Two boys, 14-year-old cousins, were killed while they were out collecting wood as the enclave continues to face its winter months.
“They were full of life and joy, they wanted to help their parents, so they went out to collect firewood for cooking and for warming the family in this harsh winter,” their uncle told CNN.
Israel claimed that the boys crossed the yellow line that essentially divides the enclave in half.
SUNDAY: Israel killed another three Palestinians and injured six in strikes across the enclave, AA reported.
One of the IDF attacks targeted a UNRWA facility in Jabalia, which is in northern Gaza, injuring two.
Philippe Lazzarini, commissioner-general of UNRWA, made a new call for Israel to end its ban on international journalists inside the enclave, noting that 230 have been killed covering the conflict since it began, according to AA.
Lazzarini said reporters’ access is needed and the “ban on international journalists has lasted too long,” according to the report.
MONDAY: Israel killed another two Palestinians, including a man, 52, who died in the artillery shelling that targeted the Bureij refugee camp, AA reported.
Gaza’s Health Ministry announced that at least 484 people have been killed and another 1,321 suffered injuries since Trump’s ceasefire went into effect.
Israel’s +972 Magazine reported that at least 10 infants in Gaza died from the elements inside the enclave, which has been called “wet tent syndrome.”
Living inside poorly ventilated tents that have been soaked in rains increase the risk of developing various sicknesses and diseases. The report said “wet tent syndrome” is associated with “illnesses associated with displaced people living in unsanitary conditions in tents are common in disaster and war zones. In recent years, the phenomenon has been identified in Afghanistan, Yemen, and Syria.”
TUESDAY: Israel killed at least three Palestinians inside Gaza City, including a 17-year-old boy who was hit in an airstrike at an intersection, according to AA.
