An airstrike hit a police checkpoint in Bureij ​camp in the central Gaza ‌Strip early on Saturday, killing at least six people and injuring several ​others, medics said.

It was ​not immediately clear whether all those ⁠killed were police members. ​There was no immediate comment from ​the Israeli military.

A series of Israeli strikes has killed dozens of Hamas-led police ​force members since October, ​according to medics and police sources.

Israel and ‌Hamas ⁠reached a US-brokered deal last October that was meant to halt violence in the Palestinian territory. ​

Both sides ​accuse ⁠each other of breaching the agreement.

Israeli fire has ​killed at least 700 ​Palestinians ⁠since the deal was struck, while four Israeli soldiers have been ⁠killed ​by militants in ​the same period.
