Al-Jazeera Net reported that nine Palestinians were killed in Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip since dawn today, including eight in Gaza City, amid repeated Israeli violations of the ceasefire.

In one strike described by Al-Jazeera Net, an Israeli drone targeted a displacement tent in the Al-Rimal neighborhood west of Gaza City, killing seven Palestinians and injuring more than 15 others.

Ceasefire contested

Al-Jazeera Net said the drone strike came without any prior evacuation warning and that the Israeli occupation continued to launch repeated attacks on the Gaza Strip despite the ceasefire being in effect since October 10, 2025.

Al-Jazeera Net quoted its correspondent in Gaza, Shadi Shamia, saying the strike was carried out by an Israeli drone that fired at least two missiles without any prior evacuation warning.
