Israel Violates Gaza Ceasefire, Killing 2 Palestinians, Including 5-Year-Old Girl

HeadlineJan 28, 2025

Israel’s military has carried out fresh airstrikes on Gaza, killing two Palestinians, including a child, despite the ceasefire agreement signed with Hamas earlier this month. Five-year-old Nadia Mohammed al-Amoudi was killed and three others wounded Monday when the Israeli army shelled a horse cart near the Nuseirat refugee camp. Separately, a Palestinian man was killed and several others wounded when Israeli forces bombed a bulldozer in Nuseirat.

Israel’s violations of the ceasefire came as tens of thousands of Palestinians continued to march north along Gaza’s coastline to return to the ruins of their former neighborhoods, left devastated by Israel’s 15-month assault. Gaza officials say more than 300,000 people crossed into northern Gaza in the nine days since the ceasefire took effect. Amid the devastated landscape were scenes of overwhelming emotion as family members reunited, many of them after being separated for over a year. This is Mohammed Audi, who reunited with his parents and brother in Gaza City Monday.

Mohammed Audi: “Better than the whole world, it is a great victory to see my mother, father and brother. Praise to God. I have been away from them for one year and four months. I was alone in the north here. They were all in the south.”

Audi’s father: “Praise to God, he brought us back safe and sound. Our Lord gave us victory. May God reassure us about all the Muslims in the world. Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds.”
