SAFA — Israel has committed 5,989 violations of the Gaza ceasefire agreement, killing 1,593 Palestinians, injuring 5,748 others, and arresting 217 people since the truce took effect, according to figures released Monday by the Palestinian Government Media Office.

In a statement detailing the latest military and humanitarian developments, the office accused Israel of systematically breaching the ceasefire through continued attacks, arrests, and restrictions on the entry of humanitarian supplies and movement through border crossings.

The office said only 77,657 trucks had entered Gaza out of the 232,800 expected under the agreement, representing just 33.3% of the stipulated deliveries.

It added that 14,821 people had traveled through the Rafah crossing in both directions, compared with the 40,000 patients, wounded Palestinians, and humanitarian cases expected to cross, a fulfillment rate of approximately 37%.

753 Israeli Violations Recorded in October

The Government Media Office documented 753 Israeli ceasefire violations during October alone, averaging 24.3 incidents per day.

According to the statement, these included 346 shooting incidents, 310 bombardments, 64 demolitions of homes using explosives, 21 incursions involving armored vehicles, and 12 arrest incidents.

The office said Israeli attacks during the month killed 145 Palestinians, including 21 children, 14 women, and two elderly people.

Another 672 Palestinians were injured, among them 182 children, 129 women, and 30 elderly people.

Children, women, and elderly Palestinians accounted for 25.5% of those killed (37 of 145) and approximately 50.7% of those injured (341 of 672), according to the office.

It also reported the arrest of 19 Palestinians during October, describing the detentions as part of Israel's continued violations of the ceasefire.

Aid and Fuel Deliveries Fall Far Below Agreed Levels

On the humanitarian front, the Government Media Office said only 3,777 trucks entered Gaza during October, compared with the 18,600 trucks expected under the agreement.

That represents a fulfillment rate of just 20.3%, with a daily average of approximately 122 trucks.

The deliveries included 1,805 humanitarian aid trucks, 1,725 commercial trucks, and 247 fuel trucks.

Fuel supplies were particularly restricted, with only 247 fuel trucks entering Gaza instead of the 1,550 expected, meeting just 15.9% of the agreed quantity.

The office warned that the continued restrictions on essential supplies were worsening Gaza's humanitarian crisis and further undermining healthcare and other vital services.

Rafah Crossing Movement Remains Severely Restricted

Movement through the Rafah crossing also remained far below the levels outlined in the ceasefire agreement.

During 21 working days in October, excluding Fridays and Saturdays, the office recorded only 802 crossings in both directions, compared with the 4,200 movements expected.

This represented a fulfillment rate of 19.1%.

The total included 404 departures, out of an expected 3,150, representing 12.8%, and 398 returns, out of an expected 1,050, representing 37.9%.

The office said no cases of travelers being turned back at the crossing were recorded during the month.

Palestinian Officials Demand International Action

The Government Media Office condemned what it described as Israel's deliberate "policy of strangulation" against Palestinians in Gaza.

It held Israel and its supporters, particularly the United States, "legally, morally and historically responsible" for the continuation of the humanitarian crisis and the deterioration of living and healthcare conditions.

The office also questioned the role of mediators and international sponsors of the ceasefire agreement in light of Israel's continuing violations.

It urged the international community and mediators to "break their silence" and exert meaningful pressure on Israel to halt its attacks and comply with the agreement.

The office called for an immediate end to military attacks, the unrestricted opening of all crossings, and the urgent entry of humanitarian aid, medical supplies, and fuel.

It warned that these measures were essential to protecting the lives of hundreds of thousands of civilians, patients, and wounded Palestinians facing increasingly difficult humanitarian conditions in Gaza.
