DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip — Israeli operations in the Gaza Strip have killed 1,005 Palestinians in the eight months since a ceasefire was reached between Israel and the militant group Hamas, the Gaza Health Ministry said Wednesday.
The enclave has seen near-daily strikes, as well as shelling and gunfire along the boundary that divides Gaza into Israeli and Palestinian-controlled zones. The most recent deaths were recorded after a series of Israeli drone strikes over several days that killed multiple people in central Gaza and Gaza City.
