The head of the Gaza Government Media Office says Israel has carried out more than 350 violations of the January 15 ceasefire agreement, Al Jazeera reports.

In a statement, Ismail al-Thawabteh said the violations demonstrate Israel’s “continued breach of commitments and its defiance of the international community”.

Since the ceasefire was signed, the Israeli army has killed and injured dozens of Palestinians through air strikes, including those carried out by fighter jets and drones, as well as direct shootings or drone strikes. Further violations include Israeli incursions into border areas east of the Gaza Strip.

The Central Emergency Committee in Rafah in the southern part of Gaza reported continued Israeli army movements in the central and western parts of the city in recent days.
