Israeli strikes killed at least three Palestinians and wounded several others in the Gaza Strip on Monday, according to health officials in the territory, adding to a death toll reported since a cease-fire was declared last October.
Deaths reported after cease-fire
Gaza health officials said at least 1,580 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks since the cease-fire began. The figure covers deaths reported over the period after the truce was announced and includes the three fatalities reported Monday.
The officials did not provide further details in the available information about the locations of the latest strikes, the identities of those killed or the number of wounded. Their figures are issued by health authorities in Gaza, which is governed by Hamas.
- Three Palestinians were reported killed in Monday’s strikes.
- Several other people were wounded, according to Gaza health officials.
- The territory’s officials put the post-cease-fire death toll at at least 1,580.
Continuing violence
The latest deaths were reported as attacks continued despite the cease-fire declared last October. The health officials’ account described the fatalities as resulting from Israeli strikes, but the available information did not include an Israeli military response to the report.
The reported toll comes amid the broader Israel-Gaza war, which has produced repeated civilian casualties and a severe humanitarian crisis in the territory. Gaza’s health authorities have regularly issued casualty figures during the conflict, while the figures are used to track the human cost of the fighting.
Monday’s incident adds to the number of Palestinians reported killed since the truce took effect. The latest account from Gaza health officials identified three additional deaths and several injuries but did not provide a full breakdown of the casualties.
