Israeli strikes kill at least two people in Gaza, officials say

Israeli military attacks in Gaza resulted in the deaths of at least two Palestinians and injuries to several others on Monday, according to health officials in the enclave. One woman was killed when Israeli forces struck the rooftop of her building in Gaza City, while her husband and others sustained injuries. In central Gaza's Nuseirat refugee camp, another strike claimed the life of a woman and wounded others.

The Israeli military claimed they targeted a militant in Nuseirat, but provided no additional details. Palestinian authorities reported that over 73,000 people have been killed in Israel's assault on Gaza. Israel asserts that four of its soldiers have lost their lives in the strikes. A US-brokered ceasefire from the previous year aims for the eventual reconstruction of the territory, but little progress has been made, as negotiators have struggled to agree on terms for Hamas to disarm and Israel to withdraw its troops.

Despite the ceasefire, Israeli airstrikes have continued. To date, at least 1,400 Palestinians, primarily civilians, have been killed in Gaza since the ceasefire went into effect, according to health officials in the territory. Israeli and Hamas have been blaming each other for violations of the ceasefire agreement.
