Israeli forces killed at least 119 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip in May, the highest monthly death toll recorded this year, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

The rising toll comes as Israel intensifies its bombardment of the enclave, seven months into the US-mediated ceasefire intended to end the genocide since October 2023.

At least 19 children and 10 women were among those killed in May, the ministry said on Tuesday.

During the past 24 hours alone, 11 new Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement were recorded, resulting in Palestinian deaths and injuries, according to local media.

Local news outlets reported heavy gunfire from Israeli military vehicles targeting eastern Khan Younis in southern Gaza on Wednesday morning.

    IDF’s gotta put in overtime to get in that last bit of murder before a ceasefire might land. Murder and theft is the whole point, after all.
