Ceasefire violations in the Gaza Strip continue, following a wave of Israeli attacks on Sunday morning that killed 11 people.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said the strikes hit militants who emerged from a tunnel in areas under army control, in response to ceasefire violations by Hamas.

At the same time, the Red Crescent reported that an airstrike on a temporary camp for displaced families in northern Gaza killed six people, while another in the southern Strip caused another five casualties. Sources said that one of the targets of the attack may have been a commander of the Islamic Jihad group, close to Hamas.

Both sides, Israel and Hamas, have accused each other of violating the ceasefire agreement that came into effect on October 10. The Gaza Health Ministry announced that at least 600 people have lost their lives since the ceasefire began.

Hamas spokesman Hazem Qassem described the Israeli attack as a "massacre of displaced Palestinians," calling it a serious violation of the ceasefire, just days before the first meeting of Donald Trump's Peace Board.

The Peace Board meeting, scheduled for February 19 in Washington, aims to create an international security force in the Gaza border areas, oversee the disarmament of Hamas and help form a Palestinian technical government.

Recently, Indonesia, part of the Board, confirmed that it will send 8,000 soldiers to help implement the ceasefire and monitor the affected areas.
