Israeli forces have killed another Palestinian child in Gaza, as they continue to attack tents sheltering displaced people despite the \u201cceasefire\u201d that designated parts of the Strip as \u201csafe zones\u201d.<\/p>\n

An Israeli drone attack on two makeshift tents killed two siblings on Saturday, 15-year-old Islam Moussa and her 30-year-old brother, Abdullah Moussa, medical sources said.<\/p>\n

Gaza\u2019s civil defence said its teams recovered seven injured people from the attack site in al-Mawasi, west of Khan Younis. They were taken to Nasser Hospital and the Red Cross Hospital.<\/p>\n

In the hospital\u2019s courtyard, relatives wept over the bodies of the brother and sister covered in white burial shrouds.<\/p>\n

Following an earlier Israeli bombardment of southern Gaza, a 10-year-old Palestinian child died from his wounds.<\/p>\n

A source at Nasser Hospital told Anadolu news agency that Walid Youssef Abu Jazar died after being wounded days earlier in an Israeli strike on al-Mawasi.<\/p>\n

The Israeli military also struck a tent sheltering displaced Palestinians in western Gaza City, wounding at least 12 people, according to al-Shifa Hospital.<\/p>\n

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society\u2019s ambulance service said most of the wounded were women and two people were critically wounded.<\/p>\n

Reporting from Gaza City, Al Jazeera\u2019s Tareq Abu Azzoum said Israel has kept up its attacks despite the \u201cceasefire\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaximum pressure has been a core tenet of the Israeli policy since the ceasefire was reached last year,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the past hours, we got reports that Israeli drones hit makeshift tents in the al-Mawasi area, which was designated under the terms of the ceasefire as a safe area for thousands of Palestinians,\u201d he added, about the attack that killed two people.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are witnessing the intensification of drones that we\u2019re still hearing overhead,\u201d Azzoum added<\/p>\n

Israel deliberately targeting children<\/p>\n

Israel\u2019s killing of Palestinian children has come under renewed focus after a United Nations report<\/a> documented the targeting of youngsters in Gaza. The report found that children made up about 30 percent of those killed since the start of the genocide in October 2023.<\/p>\n

Children\u2019s rights campaigner Rachel Accurso, known as Ms Rachel, spoke alongside one of the report\u2019s co-authors and said the world had failed to stop the slaughter.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are watching children who are just like our own try to survive a genocide and yet there\u2019s been no action, no accountability,\u201d she said on Friday.<\/p>\n

Chris Sidoti, a UN commissioner who co-authored the report, called its findings \u201cabsolutely heartbreaking\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cStates have obligations to act, legal obligations to act,\u201d Sidoti added. \u201cWe should have been acting three and a half years ago, but it\u2019s not too late to start.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gaza\u2019s health ministry says Israel\u2019s genocidal war has killed at least 73,043 Palestinians since October 2023 and wounded 173,417.<\/p>\n

Israeli forces have killed 1,031 Palestinians and wounded 3,309 since last October\u2019s \u201cceasefire\u201d began, the ministry added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Israeli drones struck tents in al-Mawasi, Khan Younis, killing two Palestinians and wounding several others.
