Israeli Forces Kill Two Children in Gaza as IDF Continues Relentless Attacks

Two children were among five Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in Gaza on Sunday as the IDF continues its relentless attacks across the besieged Palestinian territory.

Later in the day, an unidentified child was killed by Israeli gunfire in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, according to the Palestinian news agency WAFA .

Gaza’s Health Ministry said in its daily update , released about midday Gaza time, that over the past 24 hours, at least six Palestinians were killed by Israeli attacks and 25 were injured. The Health Ministry also said that since the so-called ceasefire deal was signed nearly one year ago in October 2025, the IDF has killed at least 1,517 Palestinians and wounded 5,400 as it has constantly violated the agreement.

Gaza’s Government Media Office has said that it recorded more than 5,000 Israeli ceasefire violations. Sunday’s attacks came several days after Israel said that it had halted shipments of commercial goods into Gaza, cutting off a vital supply of food and other basic goods, and there’s been no confirmation yet that the shipments have resumed. Israel claimed the decision was made on behalf of Gaza merchants who dispute a dispute with Hamas, but Palestinians involved in importing goods into Gaza denied that claim, saying it was a unilateral Israeli decision.
