Israeli occupation kills 5 Palestinians, injures others in Gaza

RAMALLAH, Oct 14 (KUNA) -- Five Palestinians were killed and others injured by Israeli occupation forces on Tuesday in the Gaza Strip, despite the ceasefire.
Medical sources reported that four of the fatalities resulted from fire by Israeli drones (quadcopters) targeting civilians inspecting their homes in the Shejaiya neighborhood, east of Gaza.
The Palestinian News Agency (WAFA) reported that another Palestinian was killed in a drone strike by the Israeli occupation forces on Al-Fukhkhari, east of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.
Meanwhile, the Nasser Hospital stated that two Palestinians were injured by Israeli occupation gunfire in Khan Younis. WAFA also reported that several others were wounded after the occupation forces targeted Jabalia refugee camp, northern Gaza.
Since the first phase of the ceasefire agreement came into effect five days ago, medical teams and civil defense crews have continued to rescue victims from under rubble and from accessible roads. However, due to the Israeli occupation's control and limited resources, many remain trapped, and teams are unable to reach them. (end) nq.dss
