Israeli strike kills five Gaza police officers: Hospital

An Israeli strike killed five police officers in the northern Gaza Strip on Saturday, said a hospital and the Palestinian territory's police force, which operates under Hamas authority.

"Five martyrs, all police officers, and a number of wounded -- one of whom is in critical condition -- arrived following an Israeli airstrike that targeted a police site in the al-Tuam area," said al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.

An Israeli military source told AFP the army had targeted "Hamas terrorists" in the area. A ceasefire has been in place since October, but Israel reserves the right to strike targets it deems a threat.
