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 central Gaza Strip resulted in the deaths of two Palestinians, including a three-year-old boy, according to health officials. The attack targeted a bakery in Deir Al-Balah, killing Hussam Nusair, the young child, Tayyem Hamdan, and wounding several others. The Israeli military claimed they targeted a Hamas militant but provided no additional information.
Since a US-backed ceasefire in October 2025, Israel has continued its military operations, asserting they are aimed at preventing attacks by Hamas and other Gaza militants. Hamas, however, blames Israel for violating the ceasefire and undermining efforts to implement a broader plan proposed by US President Donald Trump, which includes Israeli withdrawals and Hamas disarmament.
Over 1,300 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since the ceasefire began, while the Israeli military reports four soldiers have lost their lives.
