Two children martyred by Zionist regime’s gunfire, unexploded ordnance in Gaza

A 14-year-old boy lost his life when an unexploded ordnance left behind by Israeli forces exploded in the Nuseirat refugee camp.

Another teen was shot and martyred by Zionist regime’s snipers and his body was recovered in the Bureij refugee camp in Deir el-Balah.

The new victims occurred as the Gaza ceasefire and prisoner swap agreement continued to hold.

Last month, Luke Irving, director of the UN Mine Action Service in the occupied Palestinian territory, warned about the dangers of huge amounts of unexploded ordnance in Gaza and the occupied West Bank.

Meanwhile, the Israeli army has launched an air attack in the Gaza Strip, despite a ceasefire agreement in the Palestinian territory.

An Israeli military statement claimed that the strike targeted a rocket launcher used to fire a rocket from inside the enclave.

No injuries were reported and there was no immediate Palestinian comment on the Israeli attack.
