An Israeli airstrike on a police vehicle on Sunday killed three people in the middle of the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip, health officials said, hours after another person was killed in a strike on northern Gaza.

Medics and police sources said the three men killed in Nuseirat were members of the police force.

Ten people were also wounded in the attack, medics said.

Earlier on Sunday a separate airstrike killed one person - identified as a leader of one of Fatah's armed groups - and injured an unknown number of others in the Sheikh Radwan neighbourhood in northern Gaza.

The Israeli military said it was checking on the two incidents.

While Israeli attacks in Gaza declined in the days after the US and Israel launched attacks on Iran on February 28, according to residents, medics and analysts, they have since begun to rise again. Israeli fire has killed hundreds of Palestinians since the outbreak of the Iran war, Gaza health officials say.

In Gaza, Israel has violated the ceasefire went into effect in October last year on a near-daily basis, following two years of a genocidal Israeli war that killed over 72,000 people.

The territory's health ministry says that at least 680 people have been ⁠killed ​by Israeli fire since the October ceasefire.
