Story summary

Over the past week, Israeli drone fire and airstrikes in Gaza have resulted in the deaths of at least nine children, including 4-year-olds Hassan al-Hafi and Muhammad Abdel Salam Taha, 10-year-old Amal Nash'at Abu Khater, and 14-year-old Islam Ahmed Ajouri. The incidents occurred despite a supposed ceasefire agreed to by Israel and Hamas last October. At least two more Palestinians were killed in Gaza on Monday, bringing the total number of Palestinian fatalities since the ceasefire to over 1,300, according to Gazan health officials. A recent UN commission of inquiry has accused Israel of deliberately killing children in Gaza as an act of genocide. Israeli military actions have been ongoing despite claims that they are aimed at thwarting attacks by Hamas and other militants.
