Gaza, MINA – Israeli airstrikes and gunfire killed at least four Palestinians and wounded several others across the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, including in attacks on residential areas, as violence continued despite the ceasefire that took effect in October 2025.

Among the victims was Reem Asaad Awad, 33, who was killed when an Israeli strike hit a residential building in Gaza City’s Rimal neighborhood, according to a medical source at Al-Shifa Hospital cited by Anadolu Agency.

The attack severely damaged the targeted apartment and nearby buildings, while a fire broke out at the scene. Civil defense teams later managed to extinguish the blaze.

In southern Gaza, two Palestinians were reported killed when an Israeli strike hit a vehicle on al-Jiya Street in al-Qarara, north of Khan Younis. Earlier, Saddam Ikrami al-Za’anin, 23, was killed by Israeli army gunfire in Jabalia refugee camp in the northern part of the enclave.

Another Palestinian, Mohammed Fawzi al-Jumla, 32, died from severe injuries sustained in an Israeli attack on Gaza City several days earlier, according to a medical source at Al-Shifa Hospital.

Further attacks and military activity were reported in several parts of the Gaza Strip. In central Gaza, a Palestinian was wounded by gunfire from Israeli military vehicles east of Deir al-Balah, a medical source at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital told Anadolu Agency.

Witnesses also reported heavy gunfire from Israeli military vehicles and quadcopter drones toward Palestinian homes in the Tuffah neighborhood, northeast of Gaza City. Explosive devices were reportedly dropped along nearby Al-Sikka Street.

In eastern Gaza City, Israeli forces carried out demolitions of homes in areas where their troops were deployed, according to sources cited in the report.

Military vehicles and bulldozers also reportedly advanced beyond areas under Israeli army control east of Deir al-Balah. Gunfire directed toward homes along Salah al-Din Street caused panic among residents, although no casualties were reported there.

Additional Israeli artillery shelling struck areas northeast of the Bureij refugee camp, while a drone dropped an explosive device on a tent in central Gaza. No injuries were reported in those incidents.

Gaza’s Health Ministry said Israeli violations of the ceasefire that began in October 2025 had killed at least 1,498 Palestinians and injured another 5,306, according to figures cited by Middle East Monitor.

The broader toll from Israel’s military campaign since October 2023 has exceeded 74,000 Palestinian deaths and 175,000 injuries, while approximately 90 percent of Gaza’s infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed, the report said.

The latest casualties add to continuing concerns over the protection of civilians and the durability of the ceasefire, as attacks and military operations continue across the besieged territory.[]
