Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip killed at least five Palestinians on Monday, according to Palestinian health officials, highlighting ongoing violence despite a fragile ceasefire agreement. The incidents occurred in multiple locations, including Bureij camp, Gaza City, and Khan Younis, underscoring the persistent instability in the region.
Medical sources reported that one person died in an Israeli strike in Bureij camp in central Gaza. Another airstrike in Gaza City killed one individual and injured several others. Later in the day, at least three more Palestinians were killed in western Khan Younis, according to officials at Nasser Hospital. These fatalities add to the growing number of casualties since the U.S.-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas began last October.
Although the ceasefire aimed to end two years of intense conflict, progress has stalled on key issues such as Hamas disarmament and Israeli troop withdrawals. Israeli forces continue to control a large depopulated zone covering more than half of Gaza, while Hamas governs the remaining coastal strip. Since the truce took effect, over 750 Palestinians have reportedly been killed, while Israel says militant attacks have resulted in the deaths of four of its soldiers.
Tensions further escalated when clashes broke out between Hamas fighters and an Israeli-backed militia near Khan Younis. Witnesses said the militia entered a Hamas-controlled area, leading to a confrontation. During the exchange, a Hamas fighter reportedly fired an anti-tank grenade at a retreating vehicle. While an explosion was heard, no confirmed casualties were immediately reported.
A video verified by Reuters showed armed men in black uniforms carrying assault rifles entering the area before gunfire erupted. The militia leader claimed his group was delivering aid, but Hamas officials accused them of endangering civilians and acting as collaborators. The emergence of such groups adds complexity to the Gaza conflict and may further hinder efforts to stabilize the region.
