Despite the ceasefire that took effect on Oct. 10, at least 236 Palestinians had been killed and 600 wounded by Israeli fire, Gaza health authorities said Sunday. It said the total death toll from Israeli strikes since Oct. 7, 2023, had reached 68,865.
The Hamas-run media office on Monday accused Israel of committing 194 violations of the ceasefire, adding that the aid delivered into Gaza since Oct. 10 does not exceed 24 percent of the agreed-upon amount due to Israel’s obstruction.
Also on Monday, Hamas spokesman Hazem Qassem condemned Israel’s continued demolition of homes and residential areas in Gaza, saying the operations “constitute a clear violation of the ceasefire agreement.”
He called on mediators to pressure Israel to halt the “ongoing violations,” including daily killings, the continued blockade, restrictions on aid, and the closure of the Rafah border crossing.
