Drone strike near hospital

Eyewitnesses told agencies they saw an Israeli drone drop a bomb that exploded near Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia. Witnesses said Israeli forces had reportedly withdrawn from the area under the ceasefire agreement. Medical sources and hospital staff described frantic scenes as relatives pleaded for help for the wounded.

Gaza strikes and drone fire

Israeli strikes and drone-fired gunfire wounded and killed Palestinians elsewhere in Gaza on Saturday. Sources reported wounded civilians in Jabalia's Old Gaza Street. A man was shot in the head near a Beit Lahia roundabout by a drone-fired bullet.

“Earlier strikes and gunfire wounded people on Old Gaza Street in Jabalia, in Beit Lahia’s Al‑Salateen area, and in central Khan Younis near the Jasser Building, where witnesses described a quadcopter opening fire.”

A separate drone strike south of Khan Younis killed a 26-year-old man. Witnesses said quadcopters opened fire near the Jasser Building in Khan Younis, leaving at least one man with a head wound.

Ceasefire violations and casualties

Gaza health authorities and multiple outlets say these strikes amount to repeated ceasefire violations and continued Israeli attacks during the truce. Casualty tallies vary across reports.

The Gaza Health Ministry and Anadolu/TRT cite very large cumulative death tolls since October 2023. Al Jazeera and IMEMC focus on deaths and injuries since the October 10–11 ceasefire and on immediate humanitarian impacts such as fuel shortages and child deaths from cold.
