Israeli strike kills 2 people including a 3-year-old boy
Gaza medics said the Israeli airstrike near a bakery in Deir Al-Balah also wounded several others.
On Sunday, an Israeli airstrike in the Gaza Strip claimed the lives of two Palestinians, a three-year-old boy and a man. The child, Tayyem Hamdan, was among several others wounded in the attack. Health officials reported the incident occurred near a bakery in Deir Al-Balah.
The Israeli military claimed the airstrike targeted a Hamas militant, but provided no additional details. The October 2025 US-backed ceasefire, while halting major fighting, did not prevent Israeli strikes, which aim to disrupt Hamas and other militant groups in Gaza.
Hamas has accused Israel of violating the ceasefire and obstructing a comprehensive plan proposed by US President Donald Trump, which includes Israeli withdrawals and Hamas disarmament. Since the ceasefire began in October, over 1,300 Palestinians have been killed, according to Gazan health officials. The Israeli military, however, reports that only four soldiers have lost their lives.
