Gaza : At least one Palestinian was killed and seven wounded in an Israeli military operation in Gaza, local medical personnel said on Sunday.
One Palestinian was killed and three were wounded in the southern part of the Hamas-controlled enclave. The identities of the deceased and injured have not yet been announced, and it is not clear if they were members of a militant organization.
Several hours earlier, Israeli forces had delivered an air strike on the eastern part of Gaza, wounding four Hamas militants.
Peace talks between Israeli and Palestine came to a temporary halt in March following a devastating Israeli offensive in the Gaza Strip, which killed 120 Palestinians, mostly civilians.
The hard-line Islamic movement Hamas seized control of Gaza from Abbas’ Fatah movement in June.
