Israeli strikes kill 5 Palestinians in Gaza despite ceasefire

In Gaza on 17 July 2026, an Israeli strike on a gathering at a funeral in central Gaza killed several people. Outlets gave the toll as seven or eight dead and 20 to 22 injured, with Hamas saying eight were killed and Arabic-language Al-Ahram placing the strike at the Nuseirat camp. The funeral was for the victim of an earlier strike, according to Reuters and Arab News.

Al Jazeera reported that Israeli attacks across Gaza killed 14, including mourners at the funeral, while Anadolu Agency reported five Palestinians killed by Israeli strikes despite the ceasefire. Haaretz reported that the Israeli military opened dozens of probes into the deaths of detained Gazans and that no one was charged.
