A 27\u2011year\u2011old Palestinian woman was killed on Sunday in Beit Lahia in northern Gaza, while a child died after being repeatedly denied medical evacuation for treatment, as the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip continues to deteriorate under ongoing Israeli violations despite the declared ceasefire.<\/p>\n
Medical sources confirmed that Basma Aram Banat succumbed to critical wounds she sustained after being shot by Israeli forces approximately two hours earlier in Beit Lahia.<\/p>\n
Her killing adds to the growing number of Palestinians shot in northern Gaza in recent days, particularly in areas where displaced families have attempted to return to their homes.<\/p>\n

In a separate incident, the child Nidal Abu Rabee\u2019 died after his illness worsened when Israeli authorities repeatedly refused to allow him to leave Gaza for medical treatment, despite his possession of an official medical referral. His sister remains hospitalized at al\u2011Aqsa Hospital in Deir al\u2011Balah in central Gaza, awaiting approval to travel for urgent care.<\/p>\n
With the killing of Banat, the number of Palestinians killed since the \u201cceasefire\u201d that took effect on October 11, 2025, has risen to 614, with more than 1,640 injured, according to the Health Ministry.<\/p>\n
Israeli bulldozers also carried out limited incursions east of Khan Younis, damaging farmland, and infrastructure, while naval forces fired toward Palestinian fishermen off the coast of Gaza City, forcing them back to shore.<\/p>\n
In a separate humanitarian incident, medical sources confirmed that an infant and his mother were rushed to the Shifa Medical Center in Gaza City after suffering severe burns when their tent caught fire.<\/p>\n

The blaze erupted while the mother was heating water with wood to bathe her infant. She sustained third\u2011degree burns and remains in critical condition after shielding her six\u2011month\u2011old child, who also suffered burns to several parts of his body.<\/p>\n
The broader humanitarian situation in Gaza continues to deteriorate sharply. Reports from Al Jazeera, WAFA, Quds News Network, and various humanitarian organizations indicate that aid entering the Strip remains severely restricted, with only a fraction of the required supplies allowed in.<\/p>\n
Northern Gaza remains largely isolated, with residents reporting widespread hunger, untreated illnesses, and the collapse of essential services.<\/p>\n

Displaced families in Khan Younis and Rafah report that makeshift shelters offer little protection from cold weather, flooding, and disease outbreaks, while the collapse of sewage and waste systems has accelerated the spread of infections, particularly among children.<\/p>\n \u0645\u0634\u0627\u0647\u062f \u062a\u0643\u0634\u0641 \u062d\u062c\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u062f\u0645\u0627\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0643\u0628\u064a\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0630\u064a \u0644\u062d\u0642 \u0628\u0627\u0644\u0645\u0628\u0627\u0646\u064a \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0628\u0646\u064a\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u062d\u062a\u064a\u0629 \u0641\u064a \u0628\u064a\u062a \u0644\u0627\u0647\u064a\u0627 \u0634\u0645\u0627\u0644 \u0642\u0637\u0627\u0639 \u063a\u0632\u0629 \u0646\u062a\u064a\u062c\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u062f\u0648\u0627\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0625\u0633\u0631\u0627\u0626\u064a\u0644\u064a pic.twitter.com\/yM2FPZylpn<\/a><\/p>\n
