Israeli strikes and gunfire killed at least five Palestinians across Gaza on Monday as the Israeli military continues its constant violations of the US-backed ceasefire deal.
According to the Palestinian news agency WAFA, one Palestinian was killed by an Israeli strike that hit near a well southwest of the southern city of Khan Younis. A separate Israeli bombing hit a group of Palestinians to the northwest of Khan Younis, killing one person and wounding five others.
On Monday night, WAFA reported that a young man was killed by Israeli gunfire in Khan Younis, and a woman and a child were injured in the attack.
In central Gaza, an Israeli quadcopter drone dropped a bomb near the village of al-Masdar, killing at least one Palestinian. An Israeli strike also hit a vehicle in Gaza City’s western Tal al-Hawa neighborhood, killing one person.
On top of the deaths in new Israeli attacks, a Palestinian police officer who was wounded by an Israeli bombing on Sunday died of his wounds. The initial death toll in the Israeli strike targeting police in the al-Mawasi tent camp near Khan Younis was five.
Gaza’s Health Ministry said on Monday that over the past 48 hours, at least 11 Palestinians were killed by Israeli strikes, two died of wounds from previous Israeli attacks, and two bodies were recovered from the rubble, adding 15 fatalities to the ministry’s death toll.
The ministry said that since the so-called ceasefire deal was signed in October 2025, the IDF has killed at least 1,593 Palestinians in Gaza and wounded 5,748.
