A Palestinian man was killed and another wounded in an Israeli drone strike on a house in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, according to medical sources in the enclave. The deceased was identified as Sharif Hussein la Hassanat, 44, the owner of the bombed home. His body and the injured man were taken to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital. The Israeli military has not yet commented on the attack. This strike comes despite an existing ceasefire that has been in place since October 2025. It also occurs amidst attempts by the Peace Board, an organ sponsored by the U.S. presidency, to implement the second phase of a cessation of hostilities in Gaza. According to a Friday report from the enclave's Ministry of Health, over 1,285 Gazans have died in Israeli attacks during the truce, not including Saturday's casualties. The report also stated that Israeli forces killed two people in Gaza in the preceding 48 hours. The total death toll in Gaza since October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched attacks prompting an Israeli offensive, has surpassed 73,400.
