The wounded were taken to Nasser Hospital.Another attack targeted a vehicle on al-Rashid Street in the central town of az-Zawayda, with casualties transferred to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir el-Balah.A young man was also slightly wounded when an Israeli strike hit an apartment in the Maghazi refugee camp.Israeli military vehicles also fired towards homes east of the Bureij refugee camp and near the Halawa displacement camp in eastern Jabalia, but no casualties were reported. Expansion of areas under Israeli controlMeanwhile, Israeli forces continued to expand the territory under their control inside Gaza.Concrete blocks that indicate areas under Israeli control were moved to within about 200 metres (656 feet) of Salah al-Din Street, Gaza’s main north-south route, in the Shujayea neighbourhood of Gaza City, raising fears that Palestinians using the road could be targeted.The ceasefire agreed to in October has been repeatedly broken by Israel, which has conducted a genocidal war on Gaza since October 2023, killing more than 73,000 Palestinians.Under the terms of the ceasefire, Israel should be in control of areas behind a demarcation line, known as the “Yellow Line”, in the eastern part of the Gaza Strip. The Israeli military indicates that it covers roughly 58 percent of Gaza, but Israel has been gradually expanding it, and Palestinians say that people have been shot and killed for getting too close to the line, even as it regularly shifts.Gaza’s Ministry of Health says Israeli ceasefire violations have killed 1,108 Palestinians and wounded 3,578 others.
