Overview
- Gaza’s health ministry reported on Sunday that at least 16 people were killed in the previous 48 hours despite the October 2025 ceasefire and said ambulances and civil-protection teams could not reach some victims trapped under rubble.
- The ministry gave updated cumulative tolls of 73,090 dead and 173,550 injured since October 2023 and said more than 1,066 deaths and about 3,445 injuries stem from ceasefire violations recorded since October 2025.
- Humanitarian groups and the director’s lawyer say Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya of Kamal Adwan Hospital is detained at the Rakefet facility with serious injuries and breathing problems, while the Israeli prison service says it follows legal procedures and will review complaints.
- Palestinian officials and the Wafa news agency said a four-month-old infant, Ahmad Maruf Zeid, died after his urgent transfer was blocked at an Israeli military checkpoint at Deir Amar and that tear gas used by forces hindered access to care.
- Reporters note that rising US–Iran tensions and wider regional hostilities have shifted diplomatic focus, which rights groups warn is reducing pressure for improved access, slowing relief deliveries and complicating investigations into abuses.
