The attack marks the latest of nearly 400 Israeli violations of a US-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, according to Gaza's Government Media Office. At least one Palestinian has been killed and two others a woman and her child injured in Israeli attacks on southern Gaza, according to the Wafa news agency and a medical source. The killing came on Wednesday in the Qizan an-Najjar area, south of Khan Younis, a source from the city's Nasser Hospital told Al Jazeera.
Palestinian militant group Hamas has rejected the United Nations Security Council passing a Washington-drafted resolution endorsing US President Donald Trump's Gaza plan. Hamas said the proposal fails to meet Palestinians' rights and demands, adding that the plan seeks to impose an international trusteeship on the Gaza Strip. "Assigning the international force with tasks and roles inside the Gaza Strip, including disarming the resistance, strips it of its neutrality, and turns it into a party to the conflict in favor of the occupation," Hamas said in a statement.
The US is planning for the long-term division of Gaza into a green zone under Israeli and international military control, where reconstruction would start, and a red zone to be left in ruins. Foreign forces will initially deploy alongside Israeli soldiers in the east of Gaza, leaving the devastated strip divided by the current Israeli-controlled yellow line, according to US military planning documents seen by the Guardian and sources briefed on American plans.
