‘Israeli’ forces escalate attacks in Gaza on first day of Ramadan.
Shelling and gunfire hit multiple areas, including Gaza City, Khan Younis, and Rafah.

‘Israeli’ forces intensified assaults in the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, the first day of Ramadan, violating ceasefire agreements with a series of shelling and gunfire attacks across the territory.

Heavy Shelling and Gunfire

Artillery fire targeted eastern areas of Al-Bureij refugee and displaced persons camp in central Gaza, while military vehicles opened heavy fire east of Khan Younis in the south. Simultaneously, sniping and gunfire struck eastern neighborhoods of Gaza City, heightening fear among residents.

Attacks Near Rafah and Khan Younis

Near the “Morag” axis in northern Rafah, Israeli forces opened fire on surrounding areas. Border zones of Khan Younis also came under sustained gunfire from military positions along the border fence.

These attacks follow a deadly Tuesday, when a child was killed and three others, including an elderly man, were injured during separate Israeli strikes across the Strip, further compounding civilian suffering as the holy month begins.

Humanitarian groups warned that the renewed aggression risks escalating tensions and worsening conditions for Gaza’s already vulnerable population.
