An Israeli drone strike in Rafah has killed three police officers and injured several others despite an ongoing ceasefire
Three police officers have been killed and several others injured after Israel launched a drone strike in the southern Gaza city of Rafah.
According to the Gaza Interior Ministry, the officers were securing the delivery of aid trucks from the Karem Abu Salem crossing to the main road leading into the city when the attack occurred.
