Al menos dos muertos por ataques con drones israelíes en Gaza pese al alto el fuego

Two Palestinians were killed and several others injured in Israeli drone strikes in the Gaza Strip on Saturday, despite a ceasefire agreement that came into effect on October 11, 2025. According to reports from the Palestinian news agency WAFA, the first strike occurred near the Asqula junction, located east of Gaza City, where a drone attack resulted in the death of one Palestinian. A second strike, also involving an Israeli drone, targeted a group of people near the Abu Sharkh roundabout, west of the Jabalia refugee camp in the northern part of the Gaza Strip, killing another Palestinian and injuring multiple individuals, some of whom were in critical condition.

The attacks took place amid ongoing tensions, as Israeli forces continued their operations in the area even after the ceasefire was supposed to take hold. The Israeli military's actions have been widely condemned by international observers and human rights organizations, who argue that such strikes violate the terms of the truce. The Palestinian Ministry of Health has confirmed that since the ceasefire began, Israeli forces have killed 1,066 people and wounded 3,445 others. These figures include casualties from both the current conflict and previous hostilities dating back to October 7, 2023, when the violence escalated significantly.

In addition to the drone strikes, there have been other forms of military activity in the Gaza Strip. Reports indicate that at least ten separate attacks were carried out by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) throughout the day, including air raids, artillery bombardments, and the demolition of structures. One such incident saw a fighter jet strike the Zeitoun neighborhood in southern Gaza, resulting in the death of one person. Local sources cited by the agency Sanad provided these details.

The situation extends beyond the Gaza Strip into the West Bank, particularly in the occupied territories known as Cisjordan. According to the Palestinian Information Center Muta, there have been over 6,856 attacks by settlers and Israeli forces in June alone, leading to seven deaths and 184 injuries. These incidents included 1,140 incursions, 676 arrests, and 1,621 roadblocks imposed by Israeli authorities. Additionally, there were 106 acts of colonization and 596 attacks by Jewish settlers, encompassing physical assaults, property confiscations, shootings, and attacks on religious sites. There were also instances of harassment against journalists and medical personnel, as well as disruptions to educational institutions.

The cumulative toll of these actions has been significant. Official figures show that since October 7, 2023, there have been 74,269 fatalities and over 125,320 injuries in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank due to military operations and settler activities. Furthermore, more than 24,000 people have been detained, with 9,299 still held in Israeli prisons, including 3,244 without charges. Over the past three years, 90 Palestinian prisoners have died in Israeli custody.

International reactions to these developments have been mixed, with many countries and organizations calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities and an investigation into alleged war crimes. Meanwhile, the Israeli government continues to justify its actions as necessary for national security, emphasizing the threat posed by militant groups operating within the territory. As the situation remains volatile, the prospects for lasting peace remain uncertain, with calls for dialogue growing louder among humanitarian groups and advocacy organizations.
