Two Palestinian children were killed by Israeli fire in the southern Gaza Strip on Saturday, hospital officials said, highlighting tensions under a fragile ceasefire with Hamas.

The brothers, aged 11 and 8, died when an Israeli drone struck near a school sheltering displaced people in Beni Suhaila, according to staff at Nasser Hospital, which received their bodies. The Israeli military did not immediately comment on the incident.

Since the ceasefire took effect on October 10, at least 352 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, according to the Health Ministry, which does not distinguish between civilians and combatants but maintains detailed records widely regarded as reliable.

Israel has said its strikes target militants violating the truce, but the deaths of civilians have strained the fragile agreement. Both Israel and Hamas have accused each other of ceasefire violations. Hamas called on mediators Saturday to pressure Israel following the killing of the children.

Israeli operations have also intensified on other fronts. Syrian officials said Israeli forces raided a village on Friday, killing at least 13 people after residents confronted troops. Israel said the operation targeted militants planning attacks and that troops were fired upon, injuring six.

Strikes in Lebanon have increased, with Israel targeting Hezbollah sites to prevent rearmament. In the occupied West Bank, Palestinians accused Israeli soldiers of killing two men after apparent surrender on Thursday. Israel said it is investigating the incident.

Settler violence has also risen in the West Bank. The Palestinian Red Crescent reported that 10 Palestinians were injured in attacks by settlers using live ammunition and beatings in Khallet al-Louza near Bethlehem.

Meanwhile, a U.S. plan for Gaza’s future remains in early stages. The proposal calls for an international stabilization force, a transitional authority overseen by President Donald Trump, and envisions a potential path toward an independent Palestinian state.
