Israeli strikes in Gaza have reportedly killed at least three Palestinians, including a four-year-old child, amid renewed tensions despite a U.S.-brokered ceasefire. The attacks targeted multiple locations in central Gaza as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned of intensified military action over alleged launches of kites, drones and balloons from the enclave. The developments come as diplomatic efforts continue to secure long-term stability, address the future of Hamas, and negotiate the withdrawal of Israeli forces. With civilians once again caught in the crossfire, concerns are growing over the risk of renewed escalation in the region.
