Gaza Herald- Israeli occupation forces have violated the US-backed “ceasefire” in Gaza 5,147 times since it came into effect on October 10, 2025, killing 1,421 Palestinians and wounding another 4,983, according to figures released by the Gaza Government Media Office on September 29.
The office said Israeli forces also abducted 198 Palestinians during the same period, adding that the figures expose Israel’s continued violations of the truce and the deadly consequences for Gaza’s civilian population.
Israel has also failed to meet its commitments on humanitarian aid, the office said, rejecting Israeli claims that adequate supplies have been allowed into the Gaza Strip. Of the 210,600 trucks carrying relief supplies and reconstruction materials that were due to enter under the agreement, only 72,826 were allowed through, less than 35 percent of the agreed number.
Movement into and out of the enclave has also remained severely restricted, with only 13,785 of an expected 35,000 travelers permitted to cross, representing a compliance rate of no more than 39 percent.
“Humanitarian and relief conditions in the Gaza Strip had become dangerous and catastrophic, exposing hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians to deadly consequences,” the office warned.
With winter approaching, more than 1.5 million forcibly displaced Palestinians remain in tents, while around 162,000 of the roughly 270,000 tents across Gaza are too damaged to provide adequate shelter.
As of June 18, Israeli troops had expanded the area under their control from 53 percent of the Gaza Strip in October 2025 to more than 60 percent, forcing Palestinian families toward the coast amid tank fire, quadcopter attacks and sniper fire.
More than 255 severely damaged buildings are also at risk of collapse, raising fears of further deadly incidents similar to the Al-Saada building collapse in Gaza City, which killed more than 21 Palestinians.
More than 201,000 buildings, around 82 percent of all structures in Gaza, have been damaged, according to a recent assessment by the United Nations Satellite Centre (UNOSAT).
The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) reported on August 18 that only 3 percent of Gaza’s cropland remained both “accessible and undamaged,” according to satellite imagery analysis.
Only a fraction of the 600 trucks a day stipulated under the ceasefire entered the Gaza Strip throughout the truce, with many carrying commercial goods rather than humanitarian relief. Israeli inspection procedures have also delayed shipments or prevented them from entering altogether.
Since October 2023, Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza has killed more than 74,000 people and wounded over 175,000, according to official Palestinian figures.
The latest figures underscore the scale of Israeli attacks and restrictions that have continued despite the ceasefire, leaving Palestinians facing continued killings, displacement, severe aid shortages and widespread destruction nearly a year after the agreement came into effect.
