Israeli strikes killed at least nine people and wounded 20 others in the Gaza Strip, according to health officials. One airstrike hit a police post adjacent to a large tent encampment of displaced families in Khan Younis, killing five people and wounding 16 others, medics said. Another airstrike killed four people and wounded four others when it hit a vehicle in Gaza City, medics said. Medics did not say how many of the casualties from the police post strike were police. Egypt hosted renewed ceasefire talks as mediators began new efforts to salvage a fragile U.S.-brokered ceasefire deal. No agreement has been reached to implement a further U.S.-backed plan for Israeli troops to withdraw, Hamas to disarm and Gaza to be rebuilt. Major fighting has been paused since October under a ceasefire after two years of war. Israel has stepped up attacks against police headquarters and personnel in the past several months, killing dozens of them, according to Hamas security officials. Hamas says ending Israeli military operations is essential for progress in negotiations, according to Dawn.
