GAZA: The Israeli military attacked the Gaza Strip for a third day on Thursday night, killing two people, the Palestinian Authority’s official news agency said, in another test of a fragile ceasefire agreement.
One Palestinian was killed by Israeli shelling and another was shot dead by Israeli forces, WAFA said on Friday.
The Israeli military did not immediately reply to a Reuters request for comment.
A third Palestinian died of wounds sustained from previous Israeli shelling, the news agency reported.
The US-brokered ceasefire, which left thorny issues like the disarmament of Hamas and a timeline for Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip unresolved, has been tested by periodic outbreaks of violence since it came into place three weeks ago.
