The Gaza Media Office has reported that Israeli forces have violated the ceasefire agreement 393 times since the implementation of the ceasefire on October 10, leading to the deaths of 279 Palestinians, injuring more than 652, and detaining 35 others.
According to a statement issued Wednesday, the violations by Israeli forces have included 113 instances of direct gunfire targeting civilians, homes, and displaced persons’ tents, 17 incursions into residential and agricultural areas by Israeli military vehicles, 174 air and ground-based bombing and shelling operations, and 85 demolitions of civilian homes and infrastructure.
The office described these actions as part of a deliberate and systematic campaign of destruction and collective punishment against Gaza’s civilian population, amounting to a flagrant violation of international law, particularly the Geneva Conventions.
The Gaza Media Office condemned these ongoing violations and called on U.S. President Donald Trump, international mediators, and the countries involved in guaranteeing the ceasefire to take immediate action to halt the Israeli assaults. It also urged the United Nations Security Council to pressure Israel to fully adhere to the ceasefire terms and humanitarian protocols, ensuring the protection of civilians and calling for an end to the escalating violence.
The war on Gaza which started on October 7, 2023, has claimed at least 69,483 Palestinian lives and left 170,706 others injured. Many victims remain trapped under rubble, with rescue teams unable to reach them due to the scale of the destruction.
