A volunteer medic was killed by Israeli forces in Gaza, according to a report from Anadolu Agency, amid what the agency described as violations of a ceasefire in the territory. The report did not provide further identifying details about the medic or the precise circumstances of the incident.
Separately, the report said Israeli forces carried out demolitions in Gaza City and in southern Gaza. No additional detail was given on the scale of the demolitions, the specific locations affected, or a stated military rationale for the operations.
The incident comes amid a fragile ceasefire arrangement in Gaza, where sporadic violence and disputes over compliance have continued to be reported by multiple outlets since the truce took hold. Humanitarian and medical personnel operating in the territory have repeatedly faced danger amid ongoing military activity, a concern raised previously by aid organizations working in Gaza.
Anadolu Agency's report did not include a response from the Israeli military regarding the medic's death or the demolitions described. International monitors and humanitarian groups have, in the context of the broader conflict, called for independent verification of incidents affecting medical and aid workers in Gaza, given the difficulty of accessing the territory directly.
The report underscores the fragility of the ceasefire and the continued risks facing civilians and humanitarian workers in Gaza even after a formal truce was reached. Further details on both the medic's death and the demolitions were not immediately available in the source report.
