GAZA, (Palestine Foundation Information Center), The Hamas Movement confirmed in an extensive political memo that the ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip has been systematically and continuously violated by Israel, despite the Movement’s full compliance with its terms since it came into effect.
According to a statement published on Hamas’s official website on Tuesday, the memo was issued 100 days after the agreement took effect. It was sent to mediators, guarantor parties, countries, and international organizations, both as an acknowledgment of their role in brokering the agreement and a warning about the ongoing violations’ catastrophic impact on Gaza’s humanitarian situation.
Hamas stressed it has treated the agreement as a binding legal and moral commitment to protect civilians and end the bloodshed, not as political cover for continued aggression or a return to genocidal policies.
The Movement said it adhered to the agreed timeline and, within the first 72 hours, released 20 Israeli soldiers alive in accordance with the agreement.
Despite massive destruction and Israeli fire control over more than 63% of the Gaza Strip, Hamas said it continued to search for the bodies of Israeli captives. It reported recovering 27 out of 28 bodies and confirmed efforts are ongoing to locate the final one, in coordination with mediators and the International Committee of the Red Cross.
Death toll
The report stated that during the truce period, 483 people were killed, including 169 children (35%), 64 women (13.3%), 19 elderly individuals (3.5%), and 191 civilian men (39.8%), in addition to 39 resistance fighters (8.1%).
It emphasized that 96.3% of the martyrs were killed within designated “safe zones”, highlighting the deliberate and systematic nature of the killings.
Injury count
The report recorded 1,294 injuries, an average of 13 per day, including 428 children (33%), 262 women (20%), 66 elderly (5%), and 528 civilian men (41%), along with 10 resistance fighters (1%).
All injuries occurred within areas covered by the truce agreement, signaling a continued direct targeting of civilians.
Field violations
The report noted that Israel committed 1,298 field violations, an average of 13 per day, including 428 incidents of direct gunfire, 66 military incursions, and 604 air and artillery strikes.
It also revealed that Israeli forces carried out 200 demolition operations targeting homes and residential blocks within the “yellow line” and controlled areas, aiming to enforce demographic and geographic changes.
Additionally, 50 civilians and fishermen were arrested at sea, and Israeli forces exceeded agreed-upon withdrawal maps by distances ranging from 200 to 1,300 meters, such as in Jabalia refugee camp.
Israel also imposed new “fire control zones” that extended as far as 1,700 meters into northern Gaza. The estimated newly controlled area beyond the yellow line is approximately 34 square kilometers.
These violations were accompanied by daily engineering destruction, including land bulldozing, building demolitions, and the leveling of entire neighborhoods.
Health sector collapse
The report pointed out that the Israeli policies have led to the near-total collapse of Gaza’s healthcare system due to the blockade and the prevention of medical supply deliveries, including banning specialized teams and seizing or destroying medications and equipment.
Israel also blocked the entry of essential items like radiology devices, intensive care units, and surgical equipment, as well as construction materials needed to repair damaged hospitals, contributing to rising death rates, especially among children, the elderly, and chronically ill patients.
Aid trucks and supplies
The report emphasized that Israel failed to meet its commitment to allow 600 aid trucks per day and provided misleading figures.
Only 26,111 trucks entered over the past two months, out of 60,000 expected, including 15,285 humanitarian aid trucks, 10,165 commercial goods trucks, and only 661 fuel trucks.
The fuel sector was the hardest hit, receiving just 661 trucks instead of the agreed 50 per day, only 13.2% of what’s needed, crippling hospitals, bakeries, transportation, and power systems.
Israel also blocked the operation of the Strip’s only power plant, as well as the import of solar panels, bakery and rescue equipment, and tents and caravans needed for displaced families.
Water, sewage, and telecommunications networks have also been shut down. Construction materials and heavy machinery have been barred from entry for over 27 months.
The Rafah crossing has remained completely closed in both directions since the agreement’s signing, preventing thousands of injured and sick people from receiving treatment abroad, halting student and humanitarian travel, and stopping the entry of medical missions and international experts.
Detainees file
Regarding prisoners, Hamas confirmed that Israel refuses to disclose the fate of dozens of detainees and missing persons, is stalling the release of women and children, and has not provided lists of those who died in detention.
More than 1,200 martyrs’ bodies remain in Israeli custody. The report accused Israel of committing documented crimes against detainees and broadcasting them publicly, evidence of a deliberate strategy to sabotage the agreement and deepen the humanitarian disaster.
Urgent international action needed
Hamas called for immediate international intervention to halt the violations, enforce full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, and transition to phase two of the agreement.
It also demanded that Israel adhere to the agreed withdrawal lines, end control over the additional 34 square kilometers, and that a neutral international monitoring mechanism be established.
The report stressed the need to ensure 600 daily aid trucks, including 50 fuel trucks, under direct international supervision, and to allow the UN and its agencies to operate freely.
The Movement called for the immediate reopening of Rafah crossing in both directions and the entry of fuel, medical equipment, vital devices, tents, caravans, and construction materials. It also demanded transparency about the fate of detainees and missing persons, the release of women and children, and the return of the bodies of the deceased.
