In central Gaza, a four-year-old boy, Osama Ahmed Abed, died of wounds from an Israeli attack three weeks ago in az-Zawayda, the Palestinian news agency Wafa reported. His death brought the toll of Palestinians killed in Gaza since October 7, 2023, to more than 74,382. Gaza's Civil Defence agency said it was deeply concerned about repeated forced displacement near the Yellow Line, saying "massive explosions" and "indiscriminate gunfire" by Israeli forces had damaged hundreds of displaced people's tents and weakened homes hit earlier, and it appealed for urgent intervention to "halt this war against the civilian population."

Original story

An Israeli air strike on a vehicle in Gaza City's Tuffah neighbourhood killed one person and wounded several others on Tuesday, a year into the October 2025 ceasefire, according to emergency services. Al Jazeera's maps show nearly two-thirds of Gaza is under Israeli military control or access restrictions beyond the "Yellow Line" (the boundary to which Israeli troops first withdrew under US President Donald Trump's plan), and at least 1,400 Palestinians have been killed since the truce began. Separately, Israeli forces raided Palestinian rights groups and wounded two journalists in Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said there would be "no Arab army west of the Jordan River" and that Israel would extend its control across the territory.
