Israeli attacks kill 19 Palestinians in Gaza over three days

Summary

Israeli forces have killed 19 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip since Saturday, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry, which said on Tuesday afternoon that six people had died in the previous 24 hours after 13 deaths over the weekend. One man died of his wounds on Tuesday morning after Israeli forces bombed the displacement camp where he was staying in Khan Younis, and another was killed in an air strike on a group of people at the University College of Applied Sciences in Khan Younis. Gaza's Ministry of Interior reported an air strike on police and security personnel in the Al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis that killed and wounded several people, without giving a final toll. Attacks on pupils and students have increased in recent weeks since the new academic year began; the Palestinian Ministry of Education and Higher Education said at least 14 pupils and four teachers were killed in Gaza in October, and it reported that more than 97 percent of schools and universities in the Strip have been destroyed. The attacks come as Israel continues to violate the October 2025 ceasefire in Gaza.
