Israeli forces launched attacks across Gaza on Tuesday, killing at least seven Palestinians, including a father and his 13-year-old son, as the IDF continues its constant violations of the US-backed ceasefire deal.
Medics told Reuters that Fadi Rajab and his son Abubakr were killed by an Israeli strike that hit the roof of a displacement shelter in Gaza City’s Zeitoun neighborhood, and that a third Palestinian was killed by a separate Israeli strike near a school in Gaza City’s Daraj neighborhood.
Later in the day, another Israeli strike targeted Gaza City, hitting a metal foundry in the Sabra neighborhood. The strike set fire to tents in the area and killed at least three people.
In Khan Younis, southern Gaza, at least one man was killed by Israeli gunfire. Several other Palestinians were injured by Israeli attacks in the area, including a woman and a five-year-old child, according to the Anadolu Agency.
The relentless Israeli attacks have continued despite the torrential rains over the weekend that flooded tens of thousands of tents sheltering displaced families and led to the collapse of a large sand embankment, which fell onto tents in central Gaza, killing a woman and three children.
Gaza’s Health Ministry said on Tuesday that since the so-called ceasefire deal was signed in October 2025, the IDF has killed at least 1,614 Palestinians and wounded 5,849. The US continues to back Israel’s daily attacks despite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejecting a US-backed proposal that would involve Hamas giving up its weapons.
