Israel Kills 46 Palestinians in 9 Days of June as Gaza Ceasefire Erodes
3 articles · Updated · Drop Site News · Jun 9
Summary
At least 46 Palestinians were killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza in the first nine days of June, including children, with eight more deaths reported on Monday alone.
The surge follows a deadlier May, when at least 119 Palestinians were killed, and comes despite an October 2025 ceasefire that Palestinian officials say has been violated by nearly 1,000 killings, 1,400 airstrikes or shelling attacks, and more than 1,200 shootings.
Aid conditions have tightened alongside the attacks: Israel closed all crossings after regional strikes, then said it would gradually reopen Karam Abu Salem and partially reopen Rafah, but only 36% of agreed aid and 15% of required fuel have entered Gaza under the deal.
Food and living conditions are worsening, with the World Food Program estimating 77% of Gaza's population faces acute food insecurity, while residents near the Israeli-controlled 'yellow line' report daily gunfire, shelling and no regular access to aid, food or water.
Israel now controls over 60% of Gaza, according to the report, after gaining 53% under the ceasefire deal, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he ordered the military to expand that to 70%.

70,000+ Dead in Gaza: Ceasefire Erodes, Violence Escalates, and Aid Blocked as Crisis Worsens (June 2026)
Overview
After the October 2025 ceasefire, the agreement quickly broke down, leading to renewed violence across the Gaza Strip. This escalation caused a severe humanitarian crisis and a rising death toll, with fatalities in Gaza surpassing 70,000 by November 2025. The worsening situation drew widespread international condemnation. As military actions continued and the cycle of violence persisted into June 2026, the humanitarian crisis deepened, making it harder for aid to reach those in need and further fueling global criticism. The report highlights how the erosion of the ceasefire directly led to these devastating outcomes.
