4 killed in Gaza by Israeli fire, medics say

At least four Palestinians were killed in separate events across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday by Israeli fire, Gaza health sources said.

An Israeli aircraft hit ​a vehicle east of Deir Al-Balah in the central Gaza strip, killing at least one person ​and wounding four, medics said. The blast reduced the car to a mangled skeleton.

“Another strike earlier in the day killed one person and wounded another in the nearby town of Zawayda,” they added. One individual was killed later Tuesday in an attack on a tent encampment in the southern town of Khan Younis.

The Israeli military did not immediately respond to remark on those occurrences.

Medics claimed Israeli shooting also killed one guy in north-west Khan Younis, bringing the Tuesday death toll to at least four.

In a statement, the Israeli military said it opened fire against two people who were approaching the yellow line controlled by Israel near Khan Younis on Tuesday.

Israeli bombardment in Gaza haven’t stopped since President Donald Trump brokered a ceasefire in October.

Israel and Hamas are ​stuck in indirect talks ​on implementing the second part of the ceasefire, which entails disarming the group and Israeli army withdrawals.

The ceasefire kept Israel controlling more than half of Gaza, with a strip of coastal territory controlled by Hamas.

The estimates from Gaza ⁠health officials ​do not differentiate between militants and ​civilians. Some 930 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks since the truce came into effect.

During the same time four Israeli soldiers have been killed by militants, the country’s military has said.
