Israeli Strike in Gaza Kills Three Police Officers Despite Ceasefire

An Israeli drone strike on Sunday killed three Palestinian police officers east of the southern Gaza city of Rafah in a violation of the ceasefire agreement, Gaza’s Interior Ministry said.

The Interior Ministry said the policemen had been in the area to secure aid shipments entering Gaza. “The ministry … condemns this crime and calls upon the mediators and the international community to compel the occupation to stop targeting the police force, which is a civil apparatus,” the ministry said in a statement, according to Reuters.
