Four Palestinians, including a child, were killed on Thursday in separate Israeli attacks across Gaza, in the latest violations of the ceasefire agreement in force since October 10, 2025.
Medical sources told Anadolu that the bodies of brothers Abdelmalek and Abdel Sattar al-Attar arrived at the Al-Shifa Hospital after an Israeli drone strike targeted Beit Lahia in northern Gaza.
Witnesses said the strike hit an area outside the zone under Israeli control, according to the ceasefire agreement.
The Israeli army claimed that its forces identified two Palestinians crossing the so-called “yellow line” and approaching troops in a way that posed an “immediate threat.” It said the two were killed in an airstrike.

Later on Thursday, nine-year-old Saleh Badawi was killed, and several others were injured after Israeli forces opened fire in the Zeitoun neighbourhood east of Gaza City.
In southern Gaza, Mohsen al-Dabbari, 38, was killed by Israeli fire in the Ard al-Laymoun area south of Khan Younis.
In a separate incident, three Palestinians, including a teenage boy, were injured after Israeli forces fired toward homes and tents sheltering displaced Palestinians east of Al-Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza, according to medical sources and witnesses.

The “yellow line” is the line to which the Israeli army withdrew inside Gaza under the truce. It separates areas under full Israeli control in the east, covering around 53% of the enclave, from western areas where Palestinians are allowed to remain.
Since the Israeli withdrawal to that line, dozens of Palestinians have been killed after the Israeli army accused them of attempting to cross it.
According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, at least 765 Palestinians have been killed and 2,140 others injured in near-daily Israeli attacks in violation of the ceasefire in place since October 10, 2025.
The ceasefire followed more than two years of a genocidal war that killed over 72,000 Palestinians, wounded more than 172,000, and devastated about 90% of the enclave’s infrastructure.
