Israeli Strikes on Gaza Kill 6 Palestinians in Latest Breach of U.S.-Brokered Ceasefire

HeadlineFeb 27, 2026

In Gaza, Israeli drone attacks on two police stations killed at least six Palestinians overnight. One attack struck police posts in the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza; the other hit a police checkpoint in the al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis. Palestinian officials say Israel has violated the U.S.-brokered ceasefire that began last October more than 1,600 times, killing over 600 Palestinians.

Meanwhile, Israel is continuing attacks on southern Lebanon in violation of a November 2024 ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah. Lebanese officials reported 13 Israeli airstrikes on Thursday, including an attack on the Beqaa Valley that killed a 16-year-old Syrian boy.
