Israeli Strike on Khan Younis Kills 2
PALESTINE – A Palestinian man and a 5-years old child were on Tuesday killed by an Israeli strike on Khan Younis, as Israel continues to violate the Gaza ceasefire on a nearly daily basis since implementation.
A medical source said the victims’ bodies were transferred to Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis.
According to witnesses, the attack targeted tents of displaced Palestinians in the town of Bani Suheil, an area from which the Israeli army had withdrawn under the ceasefire deal that took effect on Oct. 10.
Since the ceasefire agreement came into effect, the Israeli army has committed hundreds of violations, killing 422 Palestinians and wounding 1,189 others, according to the Health Ministry.
The ceasefire halted Israel’s two-year war that killed nearly 71,400 Palestinians, most of them women and children, injured more than 171,200 others since October 2023, and left the enclave in ruins.
