Israeli strikes kill 17 in Gaza, hospitals say, after soldier wounded by gunfire

AI Summary

short article 2 min

Israeli strikes in Gaza have killed at least 17 Palestinians, including children, according to hospital officials. The strikes occurred in northern and southern Gaza, specifically in Gaza City and Khan Younis. The Israeli military stated the strikes were a response to gunfire from "terrorists" that seriously wounded an Israeli soldier during an operation near the Yellow Line, a territory demarcation under the ceasefire agreement with Hamas. Israel characterized the gunfire as a violation of the truce, which began on October 10th. Both Israel and Hamas have accused each other of frequent violations of the ceasefire. The conflict stems from the Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, and Israel's subsequent military campaign in Gaza.
