Israeli forces struck multiple sites in the Gaza Strip, killing three people and injuring others, Palestinian sources said. Two people were reported killed in Gaza City drone strikes and a third in Deir al-Balah. Authorities say a hospital camp and a warehouse of medical supplies at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital were hit and destroyed; Israel says the strikes targeted nearby Hamas weapons depots. Independent verification of all details is still pending.

Israeli forces continued strikes across the Gaza Strip on Saturday, Palestinian sources reported, saying three people were killed and several others were wounded.

According to an Israeli army spokesman, “the targets of the two attacks were terrorists.” The strikes came soon after a US announcement that an agreement had been reached for the disarmament of Hamas.

Medical sources in Gaza said two Palestinians were killed in Israeli drone strikes in Gaza City, and a third man was killed in Deir al-Balah, in central Gaza. The Hamas-run health authority reported that an Israeli airstrike in Deir al-Balah hit a camp used by a hospital, destroying stored medicines and medical equipment.

Footage shared on Palestinian and social media purportedly showing the site after the attack depicts a large crater next to tents and buildings, with boxes and other packaging scattered across the damaged area.

Israel’s army said it had targeted Hamas weapons depots, including one located near the hospital, and accused the group of exploiting medical facilities for military purposes. The Hamas-controlled health authority described extensive damage to a medical supplies and pharmaceuticals warehouse belonging to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital and to tents sheltering displaced Palestinians nearby.

The situation remains fluid. Local health authorities and international monitors have not yet released fully verified casualty or damage assessments, and independent confirmation of some claims is pending.
