The number of Palestinians killed by Israeli fire in Gaza has reached more than 1,000 since a US-brokered ceasefire last October, the enclave’s health ministry said on Thursday, with at least four people reported killed in the latest strikes.
Medics said an Israeli strike hit a vehicle on the main Omar al-Mokhtar road in Gaza City, killing three, as violence continues despite a new truce push by mediators. The Israeli military said it targeted Hamas fighters.
Later on Thursday, Israeli forces operating near the central area of Gaza killed one person, medics said.
Including the latest incident, the number of Palestinians killed since an October 2025 truce brokered by US President Donald Trump was 1,009, the health ministry said.
