Overview
- UNICEF reported on Friday that 265 Palestinian children have been killed since the October 2025 truce and more than 400 have been injured, many with devastating wounds.
- Gaza health authorities say more than 1,000 Palestinians have died in the enclave since the ceasefire took effect, with near-daily strikes and incursions continuing to cause civilian casualties.
- A specific early-morning strike on a Gaza City apartment Saturday killed at least two sisters and wounded relatives, and the Israeli military said it was investigating that incident.
- UN agencies warn that hospitals are largely nonfunctional because of shortages of fuel, medicines and spare parts, and that restrictions and denials of aid are blocking medical evacuations for severely wounded children.
- Mediators remain deadlocked over disarmament and Israeli withdrawals, leaving humanitarian needs to grow and increasing the risk of further civilian harm and long-term trauma in Gaza.
