ISTANBUL/GAZA CITY:

Three Palestinians, including the son of Gaza Health Ministry Director-General Munir al-Bursh, were killed by Israeli army fire in the enclave on Saturday, as Tel Aviv continues its violations of a truce in place since October 2025, a medical source said.

Basir al-Bursh was killed in a strike targeting him in the al-Zahra neighbourhood west of the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, the source told Anadolu.

Another Palestinian was killed in an Israeli drone strike on the Shujaiya neighbourhood east of Gaza City, the source added.

A Palestinian girl also died of wounds she sustained earlier from Israeli army fire north of the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, the source said.

Meanwhile, Israeli military vehicles intermittently opened fire east of the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, witnesses said. No injuries were reported.
