Heavy 'Israeli' shelling across Gaza on Sunday mark new ceasefire violations

'Israeli' operations escalated across the Gaza Strip on Sunday, with simultaneous attacks reported in Rafah, Gaza City, and Khan Younis.

In southern Gaza, journalists on the ground reported that 'Israeli' helicopters struck northern neighborhoods of Rafah, hitting areas situated inside the so-called yellow line, a zone designated by the 'Israeli' military as under its control.

Further north, Palestinian media said one person was killed and several others injured after 'Israeli' forces targeted a group of civilians in the Sha‘af area of Gaza City. The strike hit a section of Al-Tuffah, one of the densely populated districts in the northeastern part of the city. Local sources confirmed the attack, noting that it caused “a martyr and injuries of varying severity.” Emergency responders and civil defense crews were seen rushing victims to nearby medical facilities.

The attacks in Gaza expanded eastward to the town of Bani Suhaila, near Khan Younis, where residents reported intense artillery shelling and direct fire from 'Israeli' helicopters. The bombardment appeared to focus on areas beyond the yellow line to the east of the town, signaling a continuation of Israel’s military operations without pause.

The attacks were immediately flagged as fresh violations of the ceasefire framework, which has repeatedly been disrupted in recent days.
