Israeli fire kills three people in Gaza, medics say

-

CAIRO, June 2 (Reuters) - ‌Israeli fire killed at least three Palestinians ​in separate incidents across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, Gaza ⁠health officials said.

Medics said at least one person was killed and four were wounded when an Israeli airstrike ​hit a vehicle east of Deir Al-Balah in the central Gaza ‌Strip. The blast left the vehicle a mangled skeleton.

Another strike earlier in the day killed one person and wounded ⁠another in the nearby Zawayda town, they ⁠added, while Israeli gunfire killed one man in northwest Khan Younis, south of the enclave.

The Israeli military did not immediately comment on either of the incidents.

An October ‌ceasefire, brokered by U.S. President Donald Trump, has failed ⁠to halt Israeli attacks in Gaza.

Israel ‌and Hamas are deadlocked in indirect ​talks over implementing the second phase of the deal, which includes the group's disarmament and Israeli army withdrawals.

The ‌ceasefire left Israel in control of ​more than half of ⁠Gaza, with Hamas controlling a sliver of coastal ‌territory.

Some 930 Palestinians have ⁠been killed in Israeli strikes since the truce came into effect, according to figures from Gaza health officials that ​do not distinguish ‌between combatants and civilians.

Four Israeli soldiers have been killed by ⁠militants during the same ​period, the country's military has said.
