Israeli occupation forces escalated their aerial attacks at dawn today, Sunday, as intensive airstrikes targeted Palestinian police posts in the Al-Mawasi area, west of Khan Yunis city in the southern Gaza Strip. Field sources confirmed that the intense shelling led to the destruction of the targeted sites and the rise of smoke columns in the area, which is crowded with displaced people.
Medical sources reported that the attack resulted in the martyrdom of 6 people, including three members of the police force who were carrying out their duties in securing the area, in addition to a number of injuries of varying severity. The bodies of the martyrs and the injured were transferred to nearby hospitals amidst a state of panic among citizens living in displacement tents.
This field escalation comes in the context of a series of continuous Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement that came into effect on October 10, 2025. Despite the declared calm, Israeli aircraft and artillery have not stopped carrying out localized strikes in different areas of the Strip, threatening the collapse of fragile understandings.
Saturday witnessed similar attacks, where Israeli army forces killed three Palestinians, including two brothers, in shelling and shooting operations targeting various areas. These attacks coincide with ground military movements in areas that are still under Israeli control according to the terms of the latest agreement, exacerbating the suffering of the besieged residents.
Official statistics issued by health authorities indicate that the number of victims of Israeli violations since last October 11 has risen alarmingly, reaching 691 martyrs and more than 1876 injured. These figures show the extent of field violations practiced by the occupation forces, far from adhering to the terms of international de-escalation.
It is worth noting that the Gaza Strip is living through the aftermath of a devastating war that erupted on October 7, 2023, and lasted for two years, leaving more than 72,000 martyrs and about 172,000 injured. The widespread military operations also caused the destruction of nearly 90% of the infrastructure and vital facilities, leaving the Strip facing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis in modern times.
Israeli shelling resulted in the martyrdom of 6 Palestinians, including 3 police officers, and injuries to several others.
