Israeli Forces Killed 3 Palestinians in Gaza Despite the U.S.-Brokered Ceasefire

HeadlineNov 12, 2025

Israeli forces killed three people in Gaza over the past 24 hours, despite the U.S.-brokered ceasefire. The United Nations accused Israel of denying essential aid from entering Gaza, including 1.6 million syringes to vaccinate children and nearly 1 million bottles of baby formula. UNICEF said that Israel’s actions were preventing efforts to immunize more than 40,000 children under 3 who missed routine vaccines against polio, measles and pneumonia.

Meanwhile, Palestinians across the Gaza Strip are forced to use flashlights and private generators due to the lack of electricity. Israeli attacks have destroyed 80% of Gaza’s electricity distribution networks. This is Hanan al-Joujou, a displaced Palestinian mother of three in Nuseirat.

Hanan al-Joujou: “It’s been two years without electricity. We have not seen it. In Rafah, during our first displacement, we tried to light a candle, but we stopped for the sake of the children, fearing it could burn the tent. We tried a simple LED light, but it broke. We do not have the money to fix it. We tried to get a battery, but it’s expensive and unavailable.”
