The Palestinian Health Ministry confirmed the deaths of two Palestinians who were seriously injured by Israeli military fire two days ago in Rafah and Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip.
The Health Ministry stated that the two individuals were shot during recent Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement.
Media sources reported that the Israeli army and navy fired barrages of live rounds at the shores of Rafah and Khan Younis, as well as firing flares in the Al-Ezba area, west of Rafah.
Additionally, the army fired barrages of live rounds at Palestinian lands east of Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip.
On Sunday evening, Hani Awwad Abu Halawa died from serious wounds sustained after the army bombarded an area east of Rafah. The army also killed three Palestinian police officers: Yousef al-Eid, Ibrahim al-Eid, and Bilal al-Meghari. The three officers were part of a police force that provides security to aid trucks entering Gaza.
Since the beginning of its military campaign against the besieged Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, Israeli forces have killed 48,271 Palestinian citizens, most of whom were women and children, and wounded 111,693. At least 14,000 victims remain under the rubble of bombed buildings.
