Israeli army kills 2 Palestinians in strikes on Gaza during Ramadan
"Israeli air strikes killed at least two Palestinians in Gaza on the third day of Ramadan in the latest breach of the truce deal signed with Hamas more than four months ago. The attacks on Saturday occurred in northern Gaza's Jabalia camp and the Qizan an-Najjar area in southern Gaza. The total death toll from Israel's attacks since the ceasefire came into effect has risen to 614, with 1,640 more Palestinians wounded, according to the Palestinian news agency Wafa."
"Israel's military appeared to acknowledge one of the attacks in a post on X, claiming its forces killed a fighter who crossed onto Israel's side of the demarcation line in northern Gaza and approached its troops in a manner that posed an immediate threat. The army said it would continue to act to remove any immediate threat. Saturday's attacks come two days after US President Donald Trump's Board of Peace held its first-ever meeting addressing reconstruction, security, and governance in the war-battered Strip."
"Trump announced at the gathering that nine countries committed $7bn for Gaza reconstruction efforts, on top of a $10bn contribution from the United States. Trump also said five countries pledged to send troops to participate in an eventual 20,000-strong International Stabilization Force (ISF), which is to take over security from Hamas. But the task of disarming Hamas called for in the next stage of the deal is still unresolved, threatening to delay or derail the entire process."
Israeli air strikes on the third day of Ramadan struck Jabalia camp in northern Gaza and Qizan an-Najjar in southern Gaza, killing at least two Palestinians. The total death toll from Israeli attacks since the October ceasefire rose to 614, with 1,640 wounded, according to Wafa. Israel's military said it killed a fighter who crossed the demarcation line and insisted it would act to remove immediate threats. International donors pledged reconstruction funds and troops, including $7bn from nine countries and $10bn from the United States and five countries pledging forces for an eventual 20,000-strong ISF. The requirement to disarm Hamas remains unresolved, risking delays to reconstruction; Israel demands disarmament before rebuilding while Hamas has rejected ultimatums.
