‘Come See Our Children in the Morgue’: Israel Continues Killing Palestinians in Gaza Despite Truce Deal
by Dave DeCamp | December 11, 2025
Palestinians at the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis on
Thursday mourned two teenage boys who were killed by Israeli forces in southern
Gaza a day earlier, as the IDF continues launching attacks in the Strip in
violation of the US-backed ceasefire deal.
“This is my nephew. He is 15 years old,” the aunt of
one of the victims told Reuters while standing over his body.
“He has been living for a year near al-Alam area, he
was going to (visit) his uncle. He was going to his uncle, the trucks were
going in, the Israelis started firing, and he was hit by one bullet in his
head. This is a child. What did he do wrong to be shot? What did he do for them
to shoot him? He was not carrying weapons, he is not a fighter, he was not
going to fight you,” she added.
Gaza’s Health Ministry said on Thursday that since the
ceasefire deal was supposed to go into effect on October 10, Israeli forces
have killed at least 383 Palestinians and wounded 1,002. At least one more person was
killed on Thursday as WAFA reported that a woman was killed by an Israeli airstrike
that hit Jabalia, northern Gaza.
“Where is the calm? Where is the ceasefire? We say
there is calm but where is it? How come there’s a truce, you agreed to a truce,
and you signed on a truce while you are shooting at our children? What truce is
it?” the woman mourning at Nasser Hospital told Reuters.
“And who did you agree it with? Those who have agreed
with you on the truce and took guarantees that there will be no gunfire and no
martyrs should come and see our children laid out in the morgue,” she added.
The US has established a military base in southern
Israel to “monitor” the ceasefire, but the Trump administration has been silent
on Israel’s repeated attacks and continued restrictions on aid.
