Seven Palestinians, including a child, have been injured in two Israeli strikes in the Gaza Strip despite a ceasefire agreement in the enclave, Anadolu reports citing a medical source.

Witnesses said an Israeli drone struck a vehicle on the coastal Al-Rashid Road, west of the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza. The medical source said that five people were injured, including a child in critical condition.

Two more Palestinians were injured when a drone hit a bulldozer in the Al-Faraheen area, east of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, the source added.

The attacks came hours after another Israeli drone fired two missiles near a cart travelling along the same road, but no injuries were reported.
