Israeli airstrikes hit two Gaza police checkpoints on March 31, 2026, killing six Palestinians, including civilians, amid ongoing fragile ceasefire and disarmament negotiations.
On March 31, 2026, Israeli forces conducted airstrikes on two police checkpoints in the Gaza Strip, killing six Palestinians and wounding several others. Local medics and emergency workers reported that the strikes hit infrastructure related to civil policing, blurring the line between military and civilian targets. The incident underscores the fragility of the U.S.-brokered ceasefire and ongoing disarmament talks aimed at transitioning Gaza to a unified civilian authority. The strikes reignited condemnation from Palestinian officials and human rights groups, who accuse Israel of violating ceasefire terms and compounding humanitarian risks in an already devastated enclave.
