Two Palestinians, a man and a woman, were killed on Sunday in an Israeli airstrike on the Al-Mawasi area of Gaza, according to medical officials at Nasser Hospital.

The Israeli military claimed that the operation targeted a Hamas member, but the group had not commented on that allegation.

The strike occurred amid continued Israeli military operations despite a ceasefire agreement.

Earlier attacks in November reportedly killed at least eight Palestinians, raising further concerns about the durability of the truce.
