Overview
- Gunmen from an anti-Hamas militia entered a school east of Al-Maghazi, and after residents and Hamas-aligned fighters confronted them Monday, Israeli fire and airstrikes hit the area and killed at least 10 people.
- Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital and Gaza Civil Defense confirmed the deaths and dozens of injuries near the shelter, and the Israeli military said it was checking the reports.
- The Palestinian health ministry reported 10 people killed and 144 wounded in the past 24 hours, and doctors at Al-Aqsa said shortages made it hard to treat the influx.
- Following a WHO contractor’s killing Sunday, WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the attack was under review, and the UN health agency paused some patient transfers through Rafah.
- The flare-up shook a US-backed ceasefire in place since October, as witnesses accused Israeli-backed collaborators of operating in Gaza and residents feared the calm could give way to wider fighting.
