ISRAELI OCCUPIED GAZA, 26 Feb. - (ANA) - An Israeli airstrike killed two Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip on Thursday, the territory's health officials said, and the Israeli military said it killed what it claims was a "militant" who allegedly posed a threat to its forces in the south of the enclave.

 

Medics said an Israeli airstrike against a group of Palestinians in Gaza City's Tuffah neighbourhood killed two people and wounded several others. The Israeli military didn't immediately comment on the report.

 

Separately, the Israeli military said forces operating in the southern Gaza Strip killed a "militant" who allegedly posed an imminent threat to them, claiming he had crossed into an area still occupied by Israel inside the enclave.

 

It described the incident as a violation of the U.S.-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas that began last October.   - (ANA) -
