Israel’s military killed three Palestinians in Gaza despite the 2025 ceasefire

Situation Overview

On 19 October, Israel’s military carried out new strikes in Gaza that killed at least three Palestinians, including a 14-year-old, despite the ceasefire in force since October 2025. Two Palestinians, including 14-year-old Walid Muhamad Walid Shakshak, died in an attack on a group of children and youths south of Jan Yunis, according to reports cited by Filastin and the Sanad news agency. Separately, medical sources at Al Shifa Hospital cited by WAFA said a body and several wounded were brought to the hospital after a drone attack on the Sheij Raduan neighborhood, and the Israeli military had not commented. Gaza authorities controlled by Hamas said the death toll of Palestinians from Israeli attacks since the ceasefire took effect has risen to more than 1,520. The cluster indicates that hostilities and drone strikes continued even after the October 2025 agreement linked to a US proposal by President Donald Trump.

Geopolitical Implications

1. 01

   Reported killings and a drone strike during the ceasefire period suggest continued enforcement breakdowns and persistent civilian exposure in Gaza.

2. 02

   US-linked ceasefire arrangements face credibility and implementation challenges if strikes continue without clear de-escalation steps.
