Five Palestinian civilians killed in Israeli airstrikes on Gaza

GAZA, Feb. 09 (YPA) – At least three Palestinians were killed and several others injured Monday evening after an Israeli strike hit a residential apartment west of Gaza City, bringing the total number of fatalities since morning to five amid ongoing violations of the ceasefire.

Palestinian sources reported an Israeli fighter jet targeted an apartment on Naser Street, killing at least three civilians and injuring several others. The strike damaged nearby tents.

Earlier Monday, two Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire—one in Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip and another in Deir al-Balah in the central sector.

On Sunday, Israeli air and artillery strikes, along with other targeted attacks, killed six people across multiple areas of the Gaza Strip on Sunday, in breach of the ceasefire.
