GAZA, March 1 (Xinhua) -- At least two Palestinians were killed Sunday in an Israeli shelling on the Jabalia area in the northern Gaza Strip, according to Palestinian local and medical sources.

Local sources said Israeli artillery targeted the al-Jurn area, where displaced families live, in Jabalia town, north of the Gaza Strip.

Medical sources told Xinhua that the shelling killed two people and left a third seriously injured.

No immediate comment was available from the Israeli military regarding the incident.

Hamas has repeatedly accused Israel of violating the ceasefire through daily air and artillery strikes across Gaza, including attacks by ground vehicles and aircraft that have destroyed residential homes.

Since October 7, 2023, Israeli strikes have killed 72,096 Palestinians and injured 171,791 others, Gaza's health authorities said on Sunday.

The authorities said 629 people have been killed and 1,693 wounded since the ceasefire came into effect on October 10, 2025.
