GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) - Israeli artillery fire killed a 15-year-old Palestinian boy and wounded another teenager east of Gaza City on Saturday, marking a fresh breach of the ceasefire in the enclave.

Medical sources told Anadolu that Abed Raed Radi was killed near Israeli-controlled areas east of the Zeitoun neighborhood. Salman Yahya al-Malalha, 16, was wounded in the same shelling and remains in moderate condition.

Earlier in the day, two Palestinians were wounded when Israeli naval forces opened fire on fishing boats off Gaza City and in the Sheikh Ajlin area.

A Palestinian woman was also shot in the foot in the Mawasi area west of Khan Younis, the sources added.

Israel has killed 618 Palestinians and wounded 1,663 since a ceasefire agreement took effect last October.

The ceasefire followed the genocidal war launched by Israel on Oct. 8, 2023, that lasted two years and killed more than 72,000 Palestinians and wounded 171,000, most of them women and children, and destroyed about 90% of civilian infrastructure in the territory.
