Six months into Gaza ceasefire: 2,400 Israeli violations leave 754 Palestinians martyred


GAZA, (PIC)

The Israeli occupation army has carried out 2,400 documented breaches of the Gaza Strip ceasefire as of Apr 14, 2026, the Government Media Office (GMO) said, adding that these “grave and systematic violations” come exactly six months after the agreement first took effect.

In a Tuesday statement, the GMO characterized these actions as a direct violation of the humanitarian protocol and ceasefire terms, as well as a blatant violation of international humanitarian law.

According to the report, the violations included 921 shooting incidents and 1,109 bombardments and targeted attacks, in addition to 97 incursions by military vehicles into residential neighborhoods and 273 demolition operations targeting homes and buildings. The Office described this pattern as evidence of ongoing escalation despite the agreement remaining in force.

Civilian toll

The report stated that these violations resulted in the martyrdom of 754 Palestinians, including 312 children, women, and elderly people, noting that 99 percent of the victims were civilians.

It also documented 2,100 injuries, more than half among the same vulnerable groups, with civilians accounting for over 99 percent of the wounded. All injuries were reported to have occurred inside residential areas and away from the so-called “Yellow Line.”

Additionally, 50 Palestinians were arrested, all from within residential neighborhoods.

Rafah crossing restrictions

Regarding movement through the Rafah crossing, the statement said only 2,703 travelers had been allowed to pass since its reopening on 2 February 2026, out of 36,800 expected during the same period, a compliance rate of just 7 percent, reflecting continued restrictions on civilian movement.

On the humanitarian front, the report said 41,714 trucks carrying aid, goods, and fuel entered Gaza, out of 110,400 stipulated in the agreement, a 37 percent compliance rate.

Fuel deliveries were particularly limited, with only 1,366 trucks entering out of a planned 9,200, representing just 14 percent. The daily average stood at 227 trucks, compared to the 600 trucks that were supposed to enter each day under the agreement.

The GMO also accused Israel of failing to comply with several key provisions, including withdrawing from the Gaza Strip, allowing the entry of heavy machinery and shelter materials, restoring the power plant, and permitting sufficient medical supplies and fuel. It added that the Rafah crossing remains only partially open.

The statement warned that the continuation of these practices amounts to a “dangerous circumvention” of the ceasefire agreement, cautioning that the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is likely to worsen further.

It held Israel fully responsible for the deterioration of conditions and the continued loss of life, and called on the United States, mediators, international actors, and the United Nations to intervene urgently to compel Israel to fulfill its obligations, ensure civilian protection, and guarantee the safe and immediate flow of aid, fuel, and shelter materials.
