Israeli Army Shoots Dead 4 Palestinians in Gaza
PALESTINE – The Israeli army shot dead 4 Palestinians in Gaza late Thursday, in what they claimed was that they crossed the “yellow line.”
The army alleged in a statement that troops operating in northern Gaza identified four men who had crossed the line and approached Israeli forces in a way that it claimed constituted an “immediate threat.”
It said soldiers opened fire and killed the men.
The “yellow line” refers to a line to which Israeli forces withdrew inside Gaza as part of the second phase of a plan announced by US President Donald Trump to end the war in the enclave. The line separates areas under full Israeli military control from zones where Palestinians are allowed to be present.
Earlier Thursday, a Palestinian child was killed and two others were injured by Israeli army fire in northern Gaza, according to Palestinian sources.
Israeli warplanes also carried out strikes on Gaza City and areas in the central and southern parts of the enclave earlier in the day.
The Oct. 10, 2025 ceasefire agreement ended Israel’s two-year war that began on Oct. 8, 2023. Palestinian authorities say the conflict killed more than 72,000 Palestinians, wounded over 171,000 others, and caused widespread destruction affecting 90% of civilian infrastructure.
The UN estimates reconstruction costs at approximately $70 billion.
At least 651 Palestinians have been killed and over 1,741 injured in Israeli attacks since the ceasefire, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
