Three Palestinians were killed and four others, including a child, were injured Friday in Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip amid continued violations of a ceasefire that took effect Oct. 10, 2025, Anadolu reports.

In the latest attack, a Palestinian was killed in an Israeli drone strike targeting the courtyard of a residential home behind the Al-Razi Medical Complex in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.

Medical sources told Anadolu that the body of Ibrahim Abu Uwaimer was brought to Al-Awda Hospital in the camp following the strike.

Earlier, a medical source told Anadolu that Ahmed al-Ramlawi was killed in an Israeli strike targeting a tent on the rooftop of a home near Palestine Stadium west of Gaza City.

In another attack, a medical source told Anadolu that Ibrahim Munir al-Masri was killed and another Palestinian was injured in an Israeli strike targeting a gathering of people near the Ansar junction southwest of Gaza City.

Earlier, three Palestinians, including a girl and an elderly woman, were injured by Israeli army gunfire targeting Street 5 in the Al-Mawasi area and the vicinity of Hamad City northwest of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, the source said.

Witnesses told Anadolu that Israeli military vehicles opened heavy fire on residential areas and tents sheltering displaced people in northern, eastern and southern Khan Younis.

Israeli warships also opened fire on the coast of Khan Younis, according to the witnesses.

Earlier in the day, local sources told Anadolu that the Israeli army carried out a major demolition operation targeting homes and buildings inside areas under its control in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood east of Gaza City.

Israeli warplanes also carried out at least two strikes on evacuated buildings east of the Al-Tuffah and Shujaiya neighborhoods, with no casualties reported, according to the sources.

In central Gaza, Israeli artillery shelled eastern areas of Deir al-Balah and the Al-Maghazi refugee camp amid gunfire in the vicinity, the sources said.

Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement had killed 1,439 Palestinians and injured 5,052 others as of Thursday, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.

Since Oct. 8, 2023, Israel has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians and injured over 175,000 others in the Gaza Strip, according to Palestinian figures, while around 90% of the enclave’s infrastructure has been destroyed.
