Gaza, new Israeli raids eleven months after the ceasefire

The ceasefire signed in Gaza in October 2025, backed by the United States, continues to coexist with episodes of violence that call its durability into question. On September 15, 2026, new Israeli raids in the northern Strip caused, according to local health sources cited by international media, between two and three deaths and several wounded, including a child.

The Israeli armed forces justified the attacks as operations targeting Hamas militants present in the area. From Gaza, however, there are reports of strikes against camps of displaced people and civilian infrastructure, in a divergence of accounts that has accompanied every similar episode for months now.

The figure that places these raids in a broader perspective is the overall one: since the signing of the ceasefire agreement, Israeli attacks have caused between 1,372 and 1,375 Palestinian deaths. A toll that indicates how the 2025 agreement, although formally in force, has not halted military operations in the Strip with the continuity that the term “ceasefire” would suggest.

It should be noted that the news currently comes from a single source — international media reproduced in the Italian edition — and no independent confirmation of the reported figures is currently available, nor an independent verification of the specific circumstances of the September 15 attack. This applies both to the toll for the single day and to the overall count since October 2025, both to be treated with the caution that a single source demands.

The discrepancy between the two versions of events — an anti-terrorism operation according to Israel, a strike on civilians and displaced people according to sources in Gaza — remains unresolved and unverifiable with the elements available. It is not possible, on the basis of the material gathered, to establish which of the two accounts corresponds to the events confirmed on the ground.

What proves structurally relevant, beyond the single episode, is the persistence of a pattern: a ceasefire agreement that does not prevent military operations with civilian casualties, in a context where the death count since the agreement’s entry into force now exceeds one thousand. The gap between the formal status of the agreement and its application on the ground continues to be the element that defines the situation in Gaza eleven months after its signing.
