GAZA CITY — At least three Palestinian civilians have been killed by Israeli forces in attacks across Gaza, in a new violation of the ceasefire deal.
Local sources said a Palestinian was killed and his brother wounded by Israeli gunfire in the Shujayea neighbourhood in east Gaza City.
Another was killed by Israeli gunfire in Jalaa Street in Gaza City.
Sources said Israel has bombed the Shujayea and Tuffah neighbourhoods of eastern Gaza City.
The forces have been intermittently attacking areas of southern Gaza’s Khan Younis since the early hours of this morning with airstrikes and artillery.
Another Palestinian succumbed to wounds sustained in an earlier Israeli strike on a displaced family tent in Al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis.
Local sources reported that one person was also killed when Israeli forces targeted his home in a town east of Khan Younis on Friday morning.
The attacks came despite Israel’s assertion on Wednesday of a “resumption” of the ceasefire after a large wave of strikes on Tuesday during which more than 100 Palestinians were killed, including 46 children. — QNN
