The AP said Israeli operations in the Gaza Strip have killed 1,005 Palestinians in the eight months since a ceasefire was reached between Israel and Hamas, and it noted that the ministry does not differentiate between civilians and combatants.

The violence continued as the ceasefire remained in effect since October 10, 2025, with the Gaza Health Ministry reporting that at least 1,005 people had been killed and 3,157 others wounded since the ceasefire.

In the latest reporting, MS NOW said the most recent deaths were recorded after a series of Israeli drone strikes in the past few days on towns and refugee camps in central Gaza and Gaza City.

As mediators held week-long talks in Cairo with Hamas and other Palestinian factions on implementing the second phase of President Donald Trump’s plan for Gaza, violence continued and Israeli airstrikes killed three people in the Gaza Strip on Thursday, according to health officials.

اندبندنت عربية reported that two Egyptian officials said the current round of talks ended without decisive results, with disarmament the main point of disagreement, while the factions, including Hamas, agreed to 14 points of a 15-point plan presented by Trump’s Peace Council.

The same report quoted senior Hamas leader Hossam Badran saying the talks had “made real progress,” and it said he urged mediators to compel Israel to stop violating the ceasefire.

Al-Jazeera Net said five Palestinians were martyred and others injured in new Israeli occupation attacks on the Gaza Strip in the past hours, despite the ceasefire being in effect since October 10, 2025.

Al-Jazeera Net also cited a medical source saying the bodies of three martyrs and injured arrived at the Saraya Field Hospital affiliated with the Palestinian Red Crescent Society after a vehicle was targeted at the Abu Khadra intersection in central Gaza City.

Different outlets reported different cumulative totals for deaths and injuries since the war began, with Anadolu Ajansı saying the death toll since October 2023 had reached 73,016 and injuries had reached 173,265, while Al-Jazeera Net said the toll since October 8, 2023 had risen to 73,018 martyrs and 173,273 injured.

The Anadolu Ajansı update said at least 1,005 people had been killed and 3,157 others wounded since the ceasefire, and it added that the casualties came despite a ceasefire in place since Oct. 10, 2025.

Reuters reporting in Global Banking & Finance Review said Israeli troops still control more than 60% of Gaza's territory, where they have ordered residents out and destroyed remaining buildings, and it said nearly the entire population of 2 million people now live in a tiny strip along the coast under Hamas control.

Yeni Şafak English said the Health Ministry in Gaza reported that Israeli attacks killed two Palestinians over the past 24 hours, pushing the overall death toll since October 2023 to 73,016 despite a ceasefire agreement in effect since October 10, 2025.

Yeni Şafak English also cited the United Nations estimating reconstruction costs at approximately $70 billion and said local authorities reported that Israeli bombardments have damaged or destroyed 90% of civilian infrastructure in the densely populated coastal enclave.
