Ten Palestinians were killed on Tuesday, including the director of the Jabalia refugee camp police station, several of his officers, a woman, and a child, and others were injured, after Israeli forces carried out attacks across multiple areas of the Gaza Strip.
The attacks struck a make-shift police point inside a crowded market in Jabalia and tents sheltering displaced families in Khan Younis and Rafah, and additional Palestinians died from wounds sustained in earlier Israeli strikes.
Medical sources in Gaza reported that the Israeli strike on the police point in the Al‑Fallujah area of Jabalia refugee camp, in northern Gaza, killed Colonel Mohammad Marwan Salem, the director of the camp’s police station, along with several officers and personnel.
Witnesses said Israeli drones fired four missiles directly at the tent that serves as the police point, located in the center of a popular market frequented daily by civilians. Several Palestinians were also injured in the attack.
In Khan Younis, in southern Gaza, medical teams confirmed the killing of Husam Ash‑Shafie, aged thirty‑six, and the injury of three civilians, including a child and a woman, after Israeli forces bombed a tent sheltering displaced families west of the city.
Another citizen, Bassam Ermeilat, died of wounds sustained two days earlier when Israeli aircraft struck the Al‑Qadisiya camp west of Khan Younis.
A child was also killed and several civilians wounded when an Israeli drone bombed a tent near the Tayba Towers west of the city.
Medical sources said the child had been critically wounded by Israeli fire in the Mawasi area of Khan Younis before succumbing to his injuries.
In Rafah, in Gaza’s southernmost area, a local source reported that the child Mo’taz Abu Sha’ar was killed by Israeli army fire in the Mawasi district of the city.
Israeli forces continue to violate the “ceasefire” agreement through aerial and artillery bombardment targeting displaced civilians, along with demolition operations inside what is known as the “yellow zone,” while maintaining restrictions on the movement of goods, humanitarian aid, and travel.
Political analyst Ahmad at‑Tanani told Al-Jazeera that the strike on the Jabalia police point carries a message that goes beyond the military dimension.
Israeli forces have killed a nine-year-old boy in southern Gaza after they opened fire on tents sheltering displaced people.
Eight other people were killed in a separate attack on a police station in Jabalia.

He said the attack fits into a broader Israeli effort to dismantle the administrative and security infrastructure of the Gaza Strip, not only Hamas, in order to prevent any possibility of restoring stability or enabling governing institutions to resume their functions.
At‑Tanani added that repeated targeting of police forces since the start of the “ceasefire” aims to push the Strip toward chaos and social collapse and weaken the ability of security agencies to maintain order.
He noted that Jabalia refugee camp holds particular significance for Israel, and that repeated operations there are intended to prevent the return of residents and obstruct the restoration of the camp’s demographic structure, especially in areas near the “yellow zone,” in a manner that facilitates expanded Israeli control over land inside the Strip.
At-Tanani further stated that Israel has been working since the beginning of the “ceasefire” to entrench what he described as “freedom of military action” inside Gaza by expanding strikes on civilian and security infrastructure, taking advantage of the international community’s preoccupation with regional developments.

Separately, the European Union announced a new initiative called the “Gaza Team,” valued at 883.6 million euros, aimed at supporting early recovery efforts and restoring essential services damaged during the ongoing assault.
The initiative will focus on rehabilitating water and sanitation infrastructure, removing rubble, strengthening health and energy services, and supporting agriculture and food sectors, based on international assessments of damage and needs.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health stated that the number of Palestinians killed since the start of the “ceasefire” on October 10, 2025, has risen to 1,109, with 3,578 wounded and 800 bodies recovered.
The overall toll of the genocide in Gaza since October 7, 2023, has reached at least 73,232 killed and more than 173,686 wounded, reflecting the severe human cost of the ongoing Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip.
