On Wednesday, Israeli forces killed at least 11 Palestinians in Gaza, undermining a three-month-old ceasefire. Among the dead were three journalists traveling in a car to film a displacement camp in central Gaza; the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate stated they were on a humanitarian mission. Two 13-year-old boys were also killed in separate incidents, one while collecting firewood and another in an Israeli drone strike that also killed his father and a 22-year-old man. The Israeli military stated the strike targeting the journalists was due to the individuals operating a Hamas-affiliated drone and posing a threat to troops, adding that the incident is under examination. The journalists' vehicle was sponsored by the Egyptian Relief Committee, which said the vehicle was known to the Israeli military.
