The Gaza Health Ministry says six people were killed and 43 wounded in the Gaza Strip over the past 48 hours. Al Mayadeen's correspondent, relayed by @ME_Observer_, says five people were killed by Israeli fire across Gaza since dawn, and a medical-sources account relayed by @ME_Observer_ says at least seven were killed since Saturday morning. UNICEF separately says more than 340 children have been killed in Gaza since the ceasefire began, and an aggregator item attributes seven child deaths in Gaza to UNICEF.

Sources disagree on:
- Gaza Health Ministry gives 6 killed and 43 wounded over 48 hours, while Al Mayadeen's correspondent gives 5 killed by Israeli fire since dawn (different time window and count).
- Medical sources relayed by @ME_Observer_ say at least 7 killed since Saturday morning, one more than the Health Ministry's 6 and over a different start time.
- Al Jazeera's headline counts six Palestinians killed by Israeli drone attacks, while Al Mayadeen attributes five deaths to Israeli fire without specifying drones.
- NewsCord's aggregated item attributes seven child deaths to UNICEF (air strikes, drone strikes and gunfire, no time window), which is a subset figure not reconciled with the Health Ministry total.
- UNICEF's figure of more than 340 children killed since the ceasefire began is cumulative over about a year and is not comparable to the 48-hour count.
- The medical-sources claim does not name an attacker, while Al Mayadeen and Al Jazeera attribute the deaths to Israeli forces or Israeli drone attacks.
