GAZA, April 21 (Xinhua) -- Israeli strikes killed at least five Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Monday, Palestinian health officials said.

An Israeli airstrike killed one man at the Bureij camp in central Gaza, while another strike left one person dead and wounded others in Gaza City, medics said.

Later on Monday, at least three people were killed in an airstrike in western Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, health officials at Nasser Hospital said.

The deaths underscore renewed violence despite a U.S.-brokered ceasefire signed in October after two years of full-scale war between Israel and Hamas. Progress on key provisions, including Hamas disarmament and Israeli troop withdrawals, has stalled.

The Israeli side has not yet claimed responsibility for the attack.
