Eleven Palestinians, including three journalists, were killed in Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, in the latest violation of a ceasefire agreement, the Health Ministry said.
A ministry statement said six people were also injured in the attacks that targeted multiple areas across the Gaza Strip, without providing details about the locations of the attacks or the identities of the victims.
Munir al-Bursh, the director-general of Gaza’s Health Ministry, told Anadolu that three journalists were among those killed in the Israeli attacks in southern Gaza.
Witnesses earlier said that Israeli army forces shelled the eastern parts of the Deir al-Balah city, killing at least three people, amid daily Israeli violations of the ceasefire deal in place since Oct. 10. Airstrikes also targeted eastern neighborhoods of Gaza City.
Medical sources also said that three more people were killed in Gaza City and three others in southern Gaza.

Local sources said two powerful explosions rocked northern Gaza and Gaza City after Israeli forces demolished remaining buildings and facilities east of the Sheikh Zayed area in the north.
Israeli naval vessels also fired machine guns toward the Gaza City coastline, while a helicopter and military vehicles opened fire on the city’s eastern parts.
In southern Gaza, Israeli military vehicles fired heavily toward the eastern areas of Khan Younis, according to eyewitnesses.
The Israeli army continues to control southern and eastern buffer zones in Gaza, as well as large parts of northern Gaza, occupying more than 50% of the territory.
Israel’s military campaign since Oct. 8, 2023, which lasted two years, has killed more than 71,000 Palestinians and wounded over 171,000, and destroyed about 90% of Gaza’s civilian infrastructure.
Since the ceasefire took effect Oct. 10, 2025, Israeli attacks have killed 483 Palestinians and wounded 1,287 others, while Israel has severely restricted the entry of food, shelter supplies and medical aid into Gaza, where about 2.4 million Palestinians live in dire conditions.
