Gaza Crisis: Israeli Troops Kill Civilians, Including a Baby, in School Shelter (2026)

Israeli forces have killed five Palestinians, including a baby, at a school sheltering displaced people in Gaza City, according to hospital officials. This brings the total number of Palestinians killed by Israel since the October ceasefire to 400. The attack occurred despite the ceasefire line, where Israeli troops have withdrawn, indicating a breach of the agreement. Palestinian civil defense stated they recovered bodies after coordinating with the UN to avoid further Israeli fire. The Israeli military claims soldiers spotted 'suspicious individuals' and opened fire. The ceasefire, now in its third month, aims to transition to a second phase, but mediators face challenges in resolving differences between Hamas and Israel. Key issues include Hamas's arms and power surrender to a civilian authority and the deployment of an international stabilization force. The US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, emphasized the need for a clear mandate and funding mechanism for the international force. Delays in the second phase of the deal are concerning, as Qatar's Prime Minister warned, and the war's impact on Gaza's civilians is devastating, with infrastructure and homes destroyed. The death toll exceeds 70,925, and the situation remains tense as negotiations continue.
