Israeli occupation forces carried out new strikes across the Gaza Strip on Thursday, killing and wounding Palestinians in central and western Gaza City, while continued bombardment and demolitions intensified in several areas despite the declared “ceasefire.”
The Gaza Ministry of Health said 11 Palestinians were killed and 32 wounded due to ongoing Israeli violations and bombing throughout the day.
A Palestinian man was killed, and several others were wounded, when an Israeli military drone fired a missile at a police car near the Public Housing Junction in central Gaza City.
Ambulance crews from the Palestinian Red Crescent Society transferred the slain man and the wounded to the organization’s Al‑Saraya Field Hospital.
The strike occurred amid ongoing Israeli attacks on neighborhoods that have already suffered extensive destruction.
A Palestinian man was also killed, and several others were injured when an Israeli airstrike targeted a fuel station in Gaza City.
Later in the evening, a separate Israeli strike near Al‑Quds Hospital, operated by the Palestinian Red Crescent Society in the Tal Al‑Hawa neighborhood, wounded seven Palestinians, including one in critical condition.
The attacks caused panic among displaced families sheltering in the area and added to the growing pressure on medical teams already struggling with shortages of supplies and fuel.
Israeli forces also fired several artillery shells and flares in areas northeast of the Al‑Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza.
In addition, an Israeli military drone fired a missile at an area in the center of Khan Younis, causing several injuries.
Israeli forces continued to detonate homes and conduct explosive demolitions in eastern Gaza City and northeastern Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, where witnesses reported large blasts, heavy smoke, and bulldozers leveling residential blocks.
In the western outskirts of Khan Younis and Rafah, Israeli troops fired live ammunition, flares, and smoke grenades near Hamad Hospital and surrounding neighborhoods, further endangering civilians and obstructing movement.

Earlier Thursday, Israeli warplanes bombed four residential apartments across Gaza City at dawn, killing nine Palestinians and wounding at least fifteen others. The strikes targeted multiple neighborhoods already devastated by months of bombardment, further overwhelming medical teams, and civil defense crews.

The Ministry of Health said the number of Palestinians killed since the “ceasefire” announced on October 11, 2025, has risen to 947, with 2,935 wounded, in addition to 781 bodies recovered from the rubble.
Since October 7, 2023, the cumulative toll has reached 72,956 killed and 173,043 wounded.
The Ministry warned that the real number of casualties is higher, as many victims remain unrecovered due to the inability of civil defense teams to reach large parts of the Gaza Strip under continued Israeli fire.
