A Palestinian was killed, and two others were injured in an Israeli forces attack in northern Gaza on Wednesday, medical sources told Anadolu.
The incident comes amid continued Israeli violations of a ceasefire agreement in Gaza that has been in effect since Oct. 10, 2025.
Medical sources said the Palestinian was killed and two brothers were wounded in an Israeli attack on Old Gaza Street, east of Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip. The nature of the attack was not immediately clear.
In a related development, eastern neighborhoods of Gaza City came under artillery shelling and heavy gunfire from Israeli military vehicles positioned along the edge of the enclave, local sources said.
Witnesses also said Israeli vehicles opened heavy fire toward areas east of Khan Younis in southern Gaza.
On April 14, Gaza’s Government Media Office said in a statement that Israel had committed 2,400 violations of the ceasefire agreement, including killings, arrests, blockade measures, and starvation.
The ongoing violations have killed 784 Palestinians and wounded 2,214 others, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
The agreement was reached after two years of a genocidal war launched by Israel on Oct. 8, 2023, with US support. The war has continued in various forms since, killing more than 72,000 Palestinians, wounding over 172,000 others, and causing widespread destruction affecting 90% of the infrastructure in the enclave.
