Israeli strikes kill 3 Palestinians in Gaza despite ceasefire

Israeli strikes and gunfire killed at least three Palestinians and wounded several others in the Gaza Strip on Saturday, August 29, 2026, in the latest series of attacks that have continued despite an ongoing ceasefire. The violence, which targeted areas from Gaza City to the southern city of Khan Younis, adds to a mounting death toll that has surpassed 1,300 people since the truce was established in October 2025. According to medical sources and local health officials, two Palestinians were killed and two others wounded in an Israeli airstrike on a motorbike in the Tel al-Hawa neighborhood southwest of Gaza City. The Israeli military stated it had struck a "military operative" in the area.
