Monday’s Strikes
Israeli forces hit a water desalination plant, a mosque, and a warehouse holding humanitarian supplies in Gaza on Monday. In central Gaza, an Israeli strike hit a house in the Bureij refugee camp, killing four-year-old Hassan al-Hafi, according to Wafa. In southern Gaza, Amal Nash’at Abu Khater died from gunshot wounds after Israeli forces fired on her in Khan Younis. Another man died of wounds sustained during an Israeli raid on a tent in Deir el-Balah early Monday, Wafa reported. Two others died from injuries sustained during Israeli attacks last week.
Ceasefire Under Strain
The strikes come despite a United States-brokered ceasefire to end Israel’s war on Gaza. Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum reported from Deir el-Balah that the Israeli military issued forced displacement orders for at least four sites ahead of Monday’s attacks. Abu Azzoum said the targeted sites are considered safe under the ceasefire agreement. He added that people on the ground say the ceasefire has effectively represented an extension of the war itself.
Casualty Toll
A total of 1,288 Palestinians have been killed since the October 2025 ceasefire agreement, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry.

The deaths on Monday came a day after Israeli forces killed three Palestinians, including another four-year-old child, in attacks on Khan Younis and az-Zawayda.
