Seven Killed as IDF Opens Fire After Ceasefire Agreement
Israeli troops have been accused of opening fire and killing Palestinians less than 24 hours after the Gaza ceasefire took effect.
Authorities reported that at least seven people were killed by Israeli gunfire in two separate incidents on Tuesday morning.
- Hamas freed 20 living Israeli hostages the day before.
- Israel sent more than 30 buses of prisoners back to Gaza.
The Israel Defence Forces confirmed its soldiers shot dead “suspects” in the Shejaiya neighbourhood of Gaza City.
Under the peace deal brokered by the United States, the Israeli military will remain in control of nearly 60 per cent of the besieged Palestinian territory.
