The Israeli army said on Monday that it struck what it called an "armed Hamas terrorist cell" in the Gaza Strip and "eliminated" it, with medical sources on the ground reporting three killed in the attack.
The incident, in the north of the territory, also produced injuries, some serious, the sources said, adding that a group of people was struck. The Israeli army said the cell posed a threat to Israeli soldiers. None of the details could initially be independently verified.
A ceasefire in the Gaza war between Israel and the Palestinian militia has technically been in place since October 10. Nevertheless, fatal incidents continue to occur, with both sides accusing each other of violating the agreement.
Since the ceasefire came into effect, more than 700 people have been killed in Gaza, according to the Hamas-controlled health authority.
Palestinians have been killed in Israeli shelling almost every day in the past week, according to Palestinian sources.
Israel frequently justifies the attacks by claiming that the individuals threatened Israeli soldiers or entered areas under its control. Several Israeli soldiers have also been killed in attacks since the ceasefire began.
