Hamas civil defense says Israeli strikes kill 7, including 4 children
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleGaza’s Hamas-run civil defense agency says Israeli attacks in the Strip today killed seven people, including four children, despite a ceasefire that has largely halted the fighting.
Four people, including three children, were killed when a drone struck a tent sheltering displaced people in southern Gaza, agency spokesman Mahmud Bassal tells AFP, adding that an 11-year-old girl and an adult were killed in two separate attacks in Gaza.
There was no immediate comment from the IDF, which says it has carried out attacks against terror operatives violating the ceasefire.
