GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) - A displaced Palestinian was killed and others were injured on Saturday by Israeli army gunfire on Salah Al-Din and Al-Rashid streets in central Gaza, in a violation of the ceasefire agreement that went into effect nearly a week ago

A Palestinian body and two injured individuals were brought to the Al-Awda and Al-Aqsa Martyrs hospitals in central Gaza after being shot by the Israeli army on the streets, medical sources told Anadolu.

The Israeli army fired at displaced Palestinian people at the furthest point accessible on Salah Al-Din Street and Al-Rashid Street, which connect the southern and northern parts of the Gaza Strip, eyewitnesses said.

They explained that the displaced Palestinians had gathered in these areas, either in their vehicles on Salah Al-Din Street or on foot, awaiting permission to cross into northern areas after Hamas handed over four Israeli female soldiers under the Jan. 19 ceasefire agreement.
