At least four people have been killed in Israeli attacks in Gaza on Tuesday, according to reports from medics.

Three of the dead - a woman and two children - and several others were injured in extensive bombings in the Katiba area of ​​western Gaza City, health workers in the area said according to Reuters.

In a separate incident, a girl was reported to have been killed in Dayr al-Balah. Two other people were injured there.

The Israeli military claims in a statement that they attacked several targets in Gaza to eliminate threats to Israeli security forces.

More than 1,300 people have been killed in Israeli attacks since a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas came into effect in October last year, according to the health service in the Gaza Strip.
