Two Palestinians were killed and a number of others injured Monday in Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip despite a ceasefire that ostensibly went into effect last October, Anadolu reports.
An Anadolu Agency correspondent, citing a local medical source, said Mohammed Abdul Nasser Abu Asad, 27, had been killed — and a number of others injured, at least one of them seriously — when an Israeli drone struck a tent sheltering displaced Palestinians near the Shuhadaa Al-Aqsa Hospital in the city of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip.
Separately, another Palestinian succumbed to injuries sustained in an Israeli drone strike on Sunday that also struck a tent for displaced people west of the city, according to a medical source at the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis.
Seven other Palestinians were injured in the drone strike, the same source said.
Eyewitnesses also reported heavy Israeli gunfire from military vehicles in the direction of tents for displaced people in southern and eastern Khan Younis.
