Israeli fire kills at least 5 Palestinians in Gaza, a hospital in the enclave says

The attack happened near the ceasefire line amid stalled truce talks; Gaza health officials report 400 Palestinians killed by Israeli fire since October.

  • On Friday, Israeli troops fired across the Yellow Line into northern Gaza, killing at least five Palestinians including a baby in the Tuffah neighborhood, Gaza City, Rami Mhanna of Shifa Hospital said.
  • With the truce entering its third month, military officials said they acted on suspected threats after identifying suspicious command structures west of the ceasefire boundary, amid stalled progress in recent weeks.
  • The military says the incident is under review and `regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals`, while U.S. Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff plans to host top regional mediators in Florida Friday.
  • Those deaths add to a toll of more than 70,660 Palestinians, roughly half women and children, and have slowed progress toward the second phase mediators are pushing.
  • Given the stalled truce in recent weeks, the complex tasks of the second phase face steeper obstacles, including deployment of an international stabilization force, technocratic governing body, disarmament of Hamas and further Israeli troop withdrawals.
