Jerusalem, February 15: The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have reported that their troops killed a terrorist in northern Gaza.

In a statement released on Saturday, the IDF stated that soldiers identified the terrorist, who had crossed the “yellow line,” a demarcation that marks areas under Israeli control during the ceasefire. The IDF acted on the perceived threat and neutralized the individual.

The IDF emphasized, “Israeli soldiers in the southern command are deployed according to the ceasefire agreement and will continue operations to eliminate any immediate threats.”

According to the Palestinian official news agency Wafa, several others were injured during the IDF’s demolition of buildings in southern and central Gaza on the same day.

As reported by the Xinhua news agency, Palestinian Minister of Social Development, Samah Hamad, stated that 85% of Gaza’s population requires emergency relief and recovery assistance. Hamad noted that the number of families in need of support has surged from 86,000 before the conflict to approximately 320,000 now.

Hamad remarked, “The situation in the Gaza Strip is becoming increasingly dire, primarily due to the Israeli occupation’s restrictions on essential supplies.” He mentioned that his ministry is coordinating with international and UN agencies to secure financial aid and is pressuring Israel to allow the entry of food, medicine, and other essential goods.

The Gaza Media Office, operated by Hamas, reported that since the ceasefire agreement took effect on October 10, 2025, 31,178 trucks have entered the area, while a total of 72,000 trucks were planned.

In a statement, the office indicated that the compliance rate for shipments, including humanitarian aid, commercial supplies, and fuel, was approximately 43%. Meanwhile, Amjad Al-Shawa, head of the Palestinian NGO Network, told Xinhua that the current Israeli restrictions and obstacles faced by international organizations are diminishing humanitarian aid.

He further stated that the volume of aid reaching the enclave is significantly below actual needs, with medical supplies meeting only about 10% of the demand.
