An Israeli air strike targeting a Palestinian police post in northern Gaza has killed at least five officers on Saturday and wounded others, Gaza police said.

In a statement, the Gaza police directorate, charged with maintaining security in areas of Gaza that fell under Hamas control following a US-brokered ceasefire in October, said two missiles had hit a police post in the Tawam area.

The Israeli military did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
