Gaza – At least 11 Palestinians were killed in a series of Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip on Sunday despite a ceasefire agreement with Hamas, medical sources said.
Medical sources said five people lost their lives and several others were injured when a fighter jet struck a coffee shop in a residential area in the central town of Al-Zawayda, where a number of hospitals and tents sheltering displaced civilians are located.
Four Palestinians were also killed, and 13 others were injured, including children, in an Israeli airstrike that hit a tent sheltering displaced people inside a school in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.
ADVERTISEMENTTwo more Palestinians were killed in another strike targeting the vicinity of the“Al-Ahli Club” in the same camp.
Witnesses said two more people were injured in another attack on a displacement tent west of Khan Younis in southern Gaza.
According to reporters, the Israeli army launched a“belt of fire” toward the eastern areas of Khan Younis city in southern Gaza, which remain under its occupation.
The attacks came shortly after the army launched airstrikes in Rafah in southern Gaza after, allegedly, its troops came under missile attacks and gunfire in the area. Hamas has denied any involvement in the attack.
Israeli army spokesman Avichay Adraee urged Palestinian residents in a statement to remain only on the western side of the yellow line, which defines Israeli troop withdrawal under the US-sponsored ceasefire deal.
Adraee published a map showing two colour zones - yellow and red - warning civilians against being east of the yellow line, in the area marked in red.
The Israeli army described the red-marked area as a“highly dangerous combat zone”, according to the statement.
