Israeli strikes killed at least eight people in Gaza on Sunday, including a young child, according to hospitals and local officials, the BBC and the Associated Press report.

In the southern city of Khan Younis, a strike killed five people, according to Nasser Hospital, which received the bodies. The Hamas-run interior ministry said a drone hit a group of police officers in the al-Mawasi area as they did their routine duties, the BBC reports.

In Gaza City, a strike near the Cairo School in the al-Rimal area killed three people, hospital officials said. One was a 4-year-old boy. A woman was seriously hurt, according to Shifa Hospital, the AP reports.

Israel's military said it struck several militants in Khan Younis and one Hamas militant in northern Gaza. It has not given evidence or more details, the BBC reports.

"There is no ceasefire, the war is ongoing," Ali Oweis, who said his son and grandchild were killed, said in comments to the AFP news agency, the BBC reports.

A ceasefire began in October 2025 and has largely halted major fighting. But Israeli strikes have gone on almost every day. About 1,580 people have been killed since the truce began, according to Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry, the BBC reports.

The ministry does not separate civilians from fighters in its count, the AP notes. Israel says it aims at militants and accuses Hamas of using civilians as shields. A peace plan for Gaza brokered by the United States has stalled.

What we know: Eight people were killed in two strikes, according to local officials.
What we don't: Who exactly was targeted, as Israel has not shared evidence.
