RAMALLAH, Jan. 11– At least four Palestinians were killed on Sunday by Israeli army fire across Gaza and in southern West Bank, according to Palestinian sources.
One Palestinian was killed in the al-Tuffah neighborhood, east of Gaza City, where the Israeli army had previously withdrawn, said a medical source at al-Ahli Baptist Hospital and local eyewitnesses.
Two Palestinians were killed in the Bani Suheila area, east of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, as the Israeli army targeted with heavy weapons several civilians attempting to reach their homes, said a medical source at Nasser Hospital and local security sources.
Another Palestinian, a 58-year-old Shaker Falah Ahmed al-Ja’bari, was killed in the Khallat Hadour area of Hebron, southern West Bank, as his vehicle was targeted by the Israeli army on an alleged car-ramming attack attempt, said the Palestinian Civil Affairs Authority and local eyewitnesses.
They said the Israeli army prevented Palestinian Red Crescent crews from reaching the man after he was attacked. Meanwhile, Nablus Governor Ghassan Daghlas told Xinhua that the Israeli army stormed Nablus, northern West Bank, deploying large military reinforcements around the area.
Since an Israel-Hamas ceasefire took effect on Oct. 10, 2025, Gaza’s death toll has risen to 442 with 1,236 injuries, Gaza-based health authorities said Sunday. Rescue teams have recovered 688 bodies during that period.
In the broader conflict, at least 71,412 Palestinians have been killed and 171,314 wounded since Israel’s military campaign in Gaza began in October 2023.
In the meantime, the Israeli army has carried out operations in the West Bank almost on a daily basis. It usually called these operations “anti-terrorism” measures aimed at Palestinian militants or individuals perceived as a threat to Israel. (Namibia Daily News / Xinhua)
