Palestinian Child, Woman Killed in Gaza As Israeli Attacks Continue

IQNA – Israeli forces killed two Palestinian civilians—a 13-year-old boy and a 32-year-old woman—in an attack east of Khan Younis on Wednesday, according to local health authorities.

The attack occurred outside the so-called “yellow line” marking areas under Israeli military control, according to Al Jazeera correspondents.

The deaths brought the number of Palestinians killed in Gaza on Wednesday to five, despite a US-brokered truce being in place.

Separately, medical sources told Al Jazeera that three Palestinians from the same family were killed earlier by Israeli artillery fire in central Gaza.

Sources at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital said the victims in Deir el-Balah were a father, his son and another relative.

In a related development, the Wafa news agency reported that a 10-year-old child was among those killed in the Deir el-Balah attack.

Meanwhile, an Israeli regime helicopter gunship opened fire on Palestinians in Deir el-Balah, central Gaza, despite the ceasefire, while artillery strikes hit several areas in northern and southern parts of the enclave.

Israel’s army also blew up residential buildings in Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza, continuing the destruction of Palestinian homes inside the ceasefire’s “yellow line” demarcation, residents said.

At least 483 Palestinians, including 169 children and 64 women, have been killed since the ceasefire with Israel took effect in October 2025, Gaza’s Health Ministry said.
