- Story Text: Video obtained by Reuters on Wednesday (March 25) showed an explosion and smoke rising in a tent area for displaced Palestinians in Deir al-Balah after an Israeli strike.
While Israeli attacks in Gaza declined in the days after the U.S. and Israel launched attacks on Iran on February 28, according to residents, medics and analysts, they have since begun to rise again. Israeli fire has killed dozens of Palestinians since the outbreak of the Iran war, said Gaza health officials.
In Gaza there have been regular outbreaks of violence since a ceasefire went into effect in October last year, following two years of devastating war triggered by Hamas-led attacks in Israel in October 2023.
The territory's health ministry says that at least 680 people have been killed by Israeli fire since the October ceasefire. Israel said four soldiers were killed by militants in Gaza in the same period.
Israel and Hamas have traded blame for the truce violations.
