The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) announced the continuation of military operations in multiple areas of the Gaza Strip, despite the recent ceasefire agreement.

The IOF asserted that these operations are focused on targeting sites linked to resistance factions, claiming to address the infrastructure of the resistance and target fighters.

Sources reported several violations of the ceasefire agreement resulting in civilian casualties. In the city of Rafah, located in southern Gaza, the IOF opened fire, injuring multiple Palestinian civilians, with some cases described as serious, necessitating their transfer to hospitals for treatment.

Additionally, Palestinian sources indicated that the number of martyrs has risen to eight, with around 20 injuries reported due to an Israeli Occupation airstrike on the eastern Gaza City area, even as the ceasefire was supposed to be in effect.

This airstrike reportedly targeted a group of civilians, leading to rising casualties and marking a new violation of the announced truce.

In response to these developments, Palestinian factions have held the Israeli Occupation fully responsible for the escalation of violence, emphasizing that these attacks represent a breach of the existing agreements and reaffirm the ongoing aggression against the Palestinian people.
