Israel killed three more people in Gaza on Friday, Palestinian authorities said, in the latest day of attacks despite international appeals to move ahead on a peace plan.

The civil defence agency said that the bodies of three people were recovered after Israeli strikes in the town of Al-Qarara, east of Khan Yunis.

Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis named the three people and said they all belonged to the same family, with two aged 42 and one aged 28.

An Israeli military spokesperson, contacted by AFP, claimed that the military was looking into the strike.

Israeli strikes also killed three people on Thursday, according to the civil defence agency. The Israeli military claimed it had targeted two Hamas members it accused of plotting attacks against Israelis.
