Six Palestinian killed by Israel in Gaza despite ceasefire

Israel's military opened fire on Tuesday to remove a threat posed by suspects who approached its forces in the northern Gaza Strip, and health authorities in the enclave reported at least six Palestinians had been killed by Israeli fire.

The Israeli military said the suspects had crossed a boundary for an initial pullback under a U.S.-brokered ceasefire plan, in a violation of the deal.

Gaza's local health authority said that Israeli military killed six Palestinians in two separate incidents across the enclave.

On Monday, Hamas freed the last living Israeli hostages from Gaza and Israel sent home busloads of Palestinian detainees under the ceasefire deal, as U.S. President Donald Trump declared.
