The Hamas-run health ministry in the Gaza Strip says two Palestinians were killed in an earlier Israeli strike near the southern Gaza city of Rafah.

The ministry says the two dead men and a third man who is wounded were brought to the Abu Yousef al-Najjar hospital.

The strike brings the death toll in Gaza since Israel launched its operation to 19.
