An Israeli strike killed at least two Palestinians in the southern Gaza Strip on Monday, health officials said. The Israeli military said the operation was aimed at a militant, offering no other details.
Tent strike in Khan Younis’s Mawasi area
The previous night, an airstrike hit a tent in the Mawasi area of Khan Younis, killing three people, according to medics. Israel has intensified strikes against the group in recent weeks.
Stalled Gaza peace deal and casualty toll
Hamas denies trying to carry out attacks or rebuilding its weapons stockpile, and it accuses Israel of undermining the peace agreement. The US-brokered ceasefire from last year called for eventual rebuilding of the territory, yet the broader agreement, which requires Hamas to disarm and Israel to pull back its troops, has barely advanced.
Gaza health officials put at least 1,400 Palestinians killed by Israeli fire since the October 2025 truce. Israel says four of its soldiers have been killed by militants in Gaza during the same period.
