Gaza Health Ministry Says Israeli Attacks Kill 8 Palestinians Despite 2025 Peace Agreement

Gaza’s Health Ministry reports that recent Israeli attacks killed 8 Palestinians and injured 26, adding to tens of thousands of deaths recorded since the conflict began in October 2023.

The Gaza Ministry of Health says Israeli attacks over the past 24 hours have killed eight Palestinians and injured 26, despite a peace agreement that has been in place since 2025.

According to the ministry, the latest casualties add to a much larger toll since the war erupted in October 2023. Gaza authorities report that more than 74,000 people have been killed and 175,000 injured in the strip during that period.

The figures are difficult to verify independently but have been widely cited by humanitarian organizations operating in Gaza. They underline how often violence has flared even after a formal agreement was reached.

For residents of Gaza, the new deaths highlight the gap between the language of peace deals and conditions on the ground. Each strike that kills or injures civilians erodes confidence that the current framework can protect them.

For Israel, the reported attacks will draw further scrutiny over military actions taken after 2025 and whether they are compatible with the terms and spirit of the agreement.

Key developments to watch include whether the reported strikes continue or subside, how Israel characterizes its operations, and whether regional or international mediators push for new steps to reinforce or revise the 2025 deal.
