Martyrs and wounded in Gaza as Israeli violations of ceasefire agreement continue

Israeli occupation forces escalated their field attacks in the Gaza Strip since the morning hours of this Monday, with medical sources reporting the martyrdom of three citizens and the injury of others in a series of aerial and artillery attacks. The targeting focused on the northern part of the Strip, where citizen Musa Salem Al-Abyad (44 years old) was martyred by occupation bullets in the Al-Atatra area west of Beit Lahia, an area located outside the direct military control according to recent understandings.

In the central part of the Strip, an Israeli occupation army drone targeted a group of citizens in Al-Bureij refugee camp, resulting in the martyrdom of young Anas Hamad and several of his companions, in a serious field violation of the ceasefire agreement in effect since October 10th. These raids coincided with intense artillery shelling that targeted the eastern neighborhoods of Gaza City and Khan Yunis, while warships opened fire with their machine guns and shells towards the coasts of Rafah and Khan Yunis in the southern part of the Strip.

Field reports indicate that these attacks are part of a series of continuous violations for the 207th consecutive day of what is known as the 'Sharm El Sheikh Agreement'. The toll of victims from these violations since the signing of the agreement has reached approximately 830 martyrs and more than 2300 wounded, as the occupation continues its operations of demolishing residential blocks and civilian facilities and indiscriminate firing towards civilians in border and coastal areas.

On the political front, Palestinian circles are awaiting an imminent meeting of the Israeli cabinet to discuss the field situation in Gaza, amidst repeated Israeli threats to return to the option of an all-out war. These developments come in light of a catastrophic humanitarian reality left by the genocide war since October 2023, which has led to the martyrdom of 72,000 Palestinians and the injury of 172,000 others, in addition to the destruction of about 90% of the Strip's infrastructure.

The occupation forces continue their operations of demolishing civilian facilities and indiscriminate firing, exacerbating the humanitarian tragedy in the affected areas despite the existence of a declared agreement.
