Palestinian media reports two dead in an Israeli airstrike east of Gaza City.

The reports say their bodies were brought to Al-Shifa Hospital.

There is no immediate comment from the IDF on the reports.

Earlier, the IDF said troops killed someone they identified as a terrorist who crossed the ceasefire line in the Strip’s south.
