Local sources reported that Israeli warplanes bombed several sites in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood, east of Gaza City, within areas under the army's control according to the agreement, while occupation helicopters fired towards the eastern areas of the Jabalia camp in the northern Gaza Strip.

On Friday, a child was killed in the town of Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip, succumbing to wounds sustained from Israeli army gunfire. The Palestinian news agency WAFA reported that the child, Muhammad Raed al-Barawi, 16, was shot in the head by Israeli soldiers and died instantly.

On Friday, Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem condemned, in a statement, Israel's repeated violations of the ceasefire agreement and called on mediators to pressure Israel to halt the violations and adhere to the agreed-upon terms. Israel continues these violations despite the US administration's announcement of the start of the second phase of the agreement.
On Thursday, the Gaza government media office said in a statement that Israel had committed 1,244 violations of the ceasefire in its first phase, resulting in the death, injury and arrest of 1,760 Palestinians since the agreement came into effect.
This agreement ended a genocidal war that Israel started on October 8, 2023, and that lasted for two years, leaving more than 71,000 martyrs and more than 171,000 wounded Palestinians, and massive destruction that affected 90% of the civilian infrastructure in the sector, with reconstruction costs estimated by the United Nations at about $70 billion.
