Israeli drone strike kills Palestinian boy in northern Gaza despite ceasefire

A Palestinian boy was killed in an Israeli drone strike in northern Gaza on Tuesday, in the latest violation of a ceasefire agreement, medical sources said.

The sources said the body of Rassem Yousef Asaliya, 14, was transferred to Al-Shifa Hospital west of Gaza City after the attack that targeted him in the town of Jabalia.

Witnesses told Anadolu that the targeted area lies outside zones occupied by the Israeli army in the northern Gaza Strip.

The attack comes amid ongoing Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement that took effect on Oct. 10.

According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, at least 603 Palestinians have been killed and 1,618 others injured in Israeli attacks since the ceasefire.
