The Israeli military destroyed two homes in the northern and central Gaza Strip on Thursday evening, displacing dozens of families in the dark. The strikes were described as violations of the ceasefire agreement in effect since October 10, 2025. Local sources and eyewitnesses reported that two Israeli airstrikes targeted homes in the Al-Sfatwi neighborhood north of Gaza City and in the Bureij camp in the central Gaza Strip.

In Jabalia, local sources reported the death of a young man, Mohammed Samir Al-Najjar, following an Israeli drone strike near the Halawa camp in Jabalia, northern Gaza. Residents described the scene as "displacement under darkness."

In the Al-Sfatwi neighborhood, an Israeli airstrike destroyed the Al-Madhoune family home after residents received a warning to evacuate a residential block. Eyewitnesses stated that an individual received a call from Israeli intelligence ordering the evacuation of a residential block near the Yassin desalination plant before a building was bombed. The warning caused panic, prompting dozens of families to flee their homes at night, with only minutes to evacuate before the strike.

In the Bureij camp, a residential building belonging to the Al-Qurainawi family in "Block 7" was destroyed by an Israeli airstrike after a similar evacuation warning. Local sources indicated the five-story building was completely demolished, with extensive damage to surrounding buildings and homes. No casualties were reported from these two strikes, but the bombing caused widespread destruction and displaced dozens of families who lost their homes.
