Israeli occupation forces conducted a series of airstrikes and engaged in heavy gunfire across several areas of the Gaza Strip on Sunday, in a clear breach of an ongoing ceasefire agreement, according to local reports.

The attacks targeted multiple locations, escalating tensions and threatening the fragile calm in the region. Witnesses and local correspondents reported intense artillery shelling and aerial attacks from helicopters east of the Al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. Further south, Israeli warplanes executed six distinct air raids on areas east of Rafah.

In the city of Khan Younis, an Israeli artillery shell struck a residential home in the town of Bani Suheila. Initial reports indicate that there were no immediate casualties from any of the attacks, though assessments are ongoing.

These military actions represent the latest in a series of repeated violations of the ceasefire, which has been in place since October 11. The continued breaches have raised significant concerns among international observers and local authorities, who fear a rapid deterioration of the security situation. The latest strikes threaten to unravel the tentative peace and plunge the region back into a cycle of violence. (ILKHA)
