Story summary

On the one-year anniversary of a ceasefire backed by the United States, seven Palestinians, including an eight-year-old girl named Shahd Abdul-Razzaq al-Najjar, were killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza City. The incidents occurred on Saturday, with one drone attack killing the child in western Gaza and another bombing near Haider Abdel Shafi roundabout claiming four lives, according to medical sources and ambulance emergency services. Additionally, a woman died of injuries sustained earlier that day in southern Khan Younis, bringing the total fatalities to seven. More than 100 NGOs have criticized the ceasefire as existing only nominally, given ongoing violence since its inception.
