Seven Palestinians, including a woman and a child, have sustained injuries from Israeli fire across the Gaza Strip, according to medical reports. In the southern and central areas of Khan Younis, Israeli forces opened fire, resulting in six of the victims being transported to Nasser Hospital for treatment. Witnesses also reported that Israeli tanks targeted tents housing displaced Palestinians in Al-Mawasi, an area situated south of Khan Younis and north of Rafah.

Further incidents were reported in Gaza City, where one Palestinian was wounded on Al-Nafaq Street in the eastern part of the city. Local witnesses and sources also observed Israeli military vehicles and quadcopter drones firing upon homes and shelters for displaced people in the eastern Al-Tuffah neighbourhood. Additionally, in northern Gaza, Israeli artillery shelled areas surrounding homes near Sheikh Zayed City in Beit Lahia, with heavy gunfire reported from nearby Israeli military positions. Israeli forces also conducted artillery shelling and opened fire on homes located east of the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza, though no casualties were documented in that specific area.

Data from Gaza's Health Ministry indicates that Israeli violations of the ceasefire have resulted in the deaths of 1,257 Palestinians and left 4,131 others wounded since the agreement began last October. Since the conflict escalated on October 8, 2023, more than 73,000 Palestinians have been killed and over 174,000 injured, with women and children accounting for the majority of these casualties. The ongoing military actions have also caused extensive destruction, devastating approximately 90 percent of the enclave's infrastructure.
