Israeli strikes and gunfire killed at least four people in the Gaza Strip in separate incidents on Thursday, Hamas-linked health officials in the enclave say.

In Gaza City, a strike on a car killed at least one person, medics said. A crowd gathered around the burning wreckage, as orange-vested emergency crews sprayed it with water, photos from the scene showed.

Footage from the scene shows secondary explosions inside the vehicle following the initial strike, possibly due to the presence of flammable material.

Other strikes killed a Palestinian man on a bike in the southern city of Khan Younis and a man near Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, and gunfire killed a woman near the Jabalia refugee camp, in the north, the medics add.

Israel’s military said it had struck Hamas militants in Khan Younis, Nuseirat and Gaza City, but that it was not aware of the reported incident in Jabalia.
