Amman, Aug. 19 (Petra) — Israeli occupation forces continued
violations of a Gaza ceasefire agreement Wednesday, carrying out more
airstrikes and shelling across the enclave.

Medical sources said a Palestinian died of wounds sustained Tuesday
in an Israeli strike on a coffee shop at Gaza City’s port, which left
six Palestinians dead, including a child, and wounded 10 other
people.

A Palestinian was shot by occupation forces in central Khan Younis,
in southern Gaza, while Israeli military vehicles opened fire
northeast of the city.

Southern and eastern parts of Khan Younis came under renewed fire
from Israeli tanks, and naval vessels fired shells off the city’s
coast.

Gaza City’s eastern district was also hit by artillery shelling and
tank fire, with the Tuffah neighborhood targeted by artillery. The
Atatra area west of Beit Lahia, in northern Gaza, also came under
Israeli artillery fire.

The overall death toll from Israel’s ongoing war on Gaza, which began
on Oct. 7, 2023, has risen to 73,400 and 174,312 were wounded.
