Israeli Strike Kills at Least Six at Gaza Police Checkpoint, Medics Say

CAIRO, April 11 (Reuters) – ⁠An ⁠airstrike hit a ⁠police checkpoint in Bureij ​camp in the central Gaza Strip ‌early on Saturday, ‌killing at least ⁠six ⁠people and injuring several others, medics said.

It was ​not immediately clear whether all those killed were police members. ​There was no immediate comment from ⁠the ⁠Israeli military.

A series ⁠of Israeli ​strikes has killed dozens of Hamas-led ​police force ⁠members since October, according to medics and police sources.

Israel and Hamas reached a ⁠U.S.-brokered deal last October that was meant to ⁠halt violence in the Palestinian territory. Both sides accuse each other of breaching the agreement.

Israeli fire has killed at least 700 Palestinians since the deal was struck, while ⁠four Israeli soldiers have been killed by militants in the same period.
