GAZA, (Palestine Foundation Information Center), Israeli warplanes launched a series of airstrikes early Saturday across eastern Gaza, alongside ongoing artillery fire and gunshots, further violations of the ceasefire agreement that went into effect on October 10th, 2025.
According to local sources, Israeli aircraft targeted several areas in al-Tuffah neighborhood in eastern Gaza City, while Israeli helicopters opened fire on eastern areas of Jabalia refugee camp in the north of the Strip.
Additional airstrikes were reported east of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza. Simultaneously, Israeli helicopters and ground forces fired indiscriminately toward eastern Khan Yunis and northern Rafah.
On Friday, Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem condemned the repeated violations of the ceasefire agreement and urged mediators to pressure Israel to honor its commitments.
Despite the announcement by the US administration that phase 2 of the ceasefire agreement had begun, Israel continues to breach the deal.
On Thursday, the Gaza Government Media Office reported that Israel had committed 1,244 ceasefire violations during the first phase, resulting in the killing, injury, and arrest of 1,760 Palestinians since the agreement took effect.
The ceasefire deal had marked the end of a two-year-long genocide initiated by Israel on October 8, 2023, which claimed the lives of more than 71,000 Palestinians, wounded over 171,000, and devastated 90% of Gaza’s civilian infrastructure. According to UN estimates, reconstruction will cost nearly $70 billion.
