Israeli airstrikes have killed at least four people, including children, across the Gaza Strip, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. The attacks came as a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas remained formally in place, but violence continued and efforts to finalize a lasting truce have stalled. Hamas officials were simultaneously meeting with Qatari, Egyptian, and Turkish mediators in Cairo to discuss the current agreement, according to Al Jazeera. The strikes underscore the fragility of the ceasefire, which has not halted intermittent violence in the enclave. No further details about the locations or identities of the victims were immediately available. The Gaza Health Ministry, which reported the death toll, did not specify whether other casualties occurred in the bombings. The ongoing negotiations in Cairo are part of broader international efforts to secure a permanent end to the conflict, which has devastated large parts of Gaza and displaced most of its population. The ceasefire, brokered earlier this year, has been repeatedly tested by flare-ups of violence, with both sides accusing the other of violations. The latest deaths bring the total number of Palestinians killed since the war began to over 40,000, according to Palestinian officials, though that figure was not included in the reports. The international community has called for restraint and a return to negotiations, but no breakthrough has been announced from the Cairo talks.
