GAZA CITY, Palestine / ISTANBUL (AA) - One Palestinian was killed and four others were injured in Israeli attacks in Gaza City on Sunday, marking a new violation of the Oct. 10 ceasefire agreement, a medical source said.

The source told Anadolu that a man was killed by Israeli gunfire in the Tuffah neighborhood in eastern Gaza City.

Witnesses said that Israeli forces opened fire on tents sheltering displaced civilians in the neighborhood, causing the fatality.

An Israeli drone also hit a communications tower on Al-Wehda Street, which houses several press offices in central Gaza City, they added.

Four passersby were injured, the medical source said.

Palestinians have accused Israel of repeatedly violating the ceasefire deal, which halted Tel Aviv’s two-year war that has killed more than 71,000 people, mostly women and children, and injured over 171,000 others since October 2023.

According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, at least 484 people have been killed and 1,321 others injured since the ceasefire.
