Israeli airstrikes kill at least a dozen people in Gaza over the past two days, according to local health officials cited by multiple outlets. The reports say the strikes include an attack on police in Gaza, as part of an overall increase in Israeli operations in the territory. The Independent and The Washington Times describe the fatalities as coming from bombardments carried out during that two-day period, with the death toll reported by Gaza health authorities. Both accounts characterize the strikes as occurring amid a broader campaign of violence affecting Gaza. The Washington Times adds that the intensified attacks take place despite a months-old ceasefire with Hamas, framing the current actions as escalation relative to that earlier agreement. The sources do not provide further details in the excerpts beyond the reported casualties, the time window, and the reference to an attack on police. The situation remains developing, with the figures attributed to local health officials and no additional independent verification included in the provided summaries.
