An Israeli drone strike in Gaza City has reportedly wounded several civilians near Dar Al-Arqam School, according to Middle East Eye. This incident comes amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, which has seen repeated breaches of a ceasefire agreement established in October 2025. The ceasefire, part of a U.S.-brokered peace deal, has been marred by near-daily accusations of violations. Despite efforts to maintain peace, clashes have resulted in over 200 casualties since the truce was announced. The recent drone strike targeting a location near a school for displaced individuals indicates a continued escalation in hostilities.
