A medical source reported that two Palestinians were killed and three others were injured in Al-Salam Street in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood, which is one of the areas from which the Israeli army withdrew under the ceasefire agreement.
Anadolu Agency's correspondent explained that the bombing targeted a house in the neighborhood, and that civil defense and ambulance crews rushed to the scene.
For his part, Gaza Civil Defense spokesman Mahmoud Basal said in a statement: "Two martyrs as a result of an Israeli bombing that targeted a residential apartment in a house belonging to the Alwan family in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood."
In contrast, the Israeli army claimed that “Hamas fighters fired on an area where its forces are stationed” in the northern Gaza Strip, with no comment from the movement as of 19:15 GMT. It said in a statement that “the firing constitutes a flagrant violation of the ceasefire agreement,” according to its claim.
He added: "In response, the Israeli army and the General Security Service (Shin Bet) attacked" a member he described as "prominent in Hamas," claiming that he "was planning to launch attacks against our forces in the northern Gaza Strip."
This comes as part of Israel’s continued violations of the ceasefire agreement that came into effect on October 10, which resulted in the martyrdom of 424 Palestinians and the injury of 1,199 others, according to the latest figures from the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip.
On October 8, 2023, Israel began a two-year genocide in Gaza, which resulted in over 71,000 Palestinian martyrs and 171,000 wounded, in addition to massive destruction affecting 90% of civilian infrastructure, with reconstruction costs estimated by the United Nations at about $70 billion.
