At least three Palestinians have been killed in separate Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip, according to medics and local media reports. One was killed in an attack on a tent housing displaced people west of Gaza City, while another strike in the al-Mawasi area in western Khan Younis killed one person and injured others, the Palestinian Wafa news agency reported.

The Israeli military claimed the strikes in Khan Younis were targeting Hamas fighters, but Palestinian authorities accuse Israel of undermining efforts to implement a broader peace plan, which includes the full withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza and disarming Hamas.

Israeli attacks in Gaza have killed more than 1,300 Palestinians and injured over 4,000 since the ceasefire came into effect, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. The Israeli army has reported five deaths in its ranks and one civilian contractor over the same period.

Background: The conflict in Gaza has been ongoing, with multiple ceasefires and agreements failing to bring lasting peace. The latest attacks come as efforts to demilitarize Gaza and disarm Hamas continue, with both sides citing different justifications for their actions.
