Two children among eight Palestinians killed in Israeli strikes on Gaza Overnight Israeli strikes on Gaza killed at least eight people, including two children, despite Hamas saying it agreed to the latest stage of a deal to end the war. Gaza civil defence officials said in one attack near the central Gaza Strip, a man and his wife were killed and several others were wounded when an Israeli military helicopter struck an apartment, AFP reported. An elderly man and a child were killed in another attack on an apartment west of Gaza City, and three people, including a child, were targeted when a strike hit another apartment northwest of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.
