Hamas has accused Israel of a “blatant violation” of the Gaza ceasefire agreement, after the Palestinian territory’s civil defence agency reported that nine people were killed in Israeli strikes in the northern town of Beit Lahia, AFP reports.
“The occupation (Israel) has committed a horrific massacre in the northern Gaza Strip by targeting a group of journalists and humanitarian workers, in a blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement,” Hamas spokesman Hazem Qassem said in a statement.
