Gaza City:Three Palestinians, including a security officer and a young girl, have been killed in recent Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip, as reported by medical sources. The fatalities occurred amid ongoing violations of a ceasefire agreement that has been in place since October 10, 2025.
According to Anadolu Agency – English, a Palestinian girl was killed and several others were injured when an Israeli drone targeted a tent near Gaza Municipality Park in central Gaza City. Medical sources indicated that some of the injured individuals are in critical condition, although an exact number of casualties was not provided.
Earlier in the day, an attack in Khan Yunis resulted in the death of Khaled Shalouf, an officer with the Internal Security Service. A medical source from the nongovernmental Kuwait Hospital confirmed this and reported that 11 other Palestinians were wounded in the attack, with four in critical condition. Witnesses reported that the strike targeted a group of people gathered outside the University College in Al-Mawasi, west of Khan Yunis, where displaced Palestinians had sought shelter.
The Interior and National Security Ministry of Gaza confirmed Shalouf's death and identified him as a first lieutenant. The ministry stated that Israeli aircraft targeted officers and personnel from the Internal Security Service in the Al-Mawasi area, leading to several casualties.
This event marks the second attack on security personnel affiliated with Gaza's administration within three days, following an attack on Sunday in Khan Yunis that killed six people. Additionally, Imad Omar Radi, aged 39, succumbed to injuries he sustained during an Israeli bombardment in the Japanese neighborhood of Khan Yunis on Monday.
Witnesses also reported that Israeli military vehicles fired heavily towards tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in Al-Mawasi, between Rafah and Khan Yunis. Artillery shelling targeted areas east of Khan Yunis as well.
Gaza's Health Ministry has reported that Israeli ceasefire violations have resulted in the deaths of 1,599 Palestinians and injuries to 5,774 others. Since October 8, 2023, Israeli attacks have reportedly killed more than 74,000 Palestinians and wounded over 174,000 others in Gaza, causing extensive destruction and affecting approximately 90% of civilian infrastructure.
