At least four Palestinians were killed during Israeli army operations in southern Gaza Strip town of KhanYounis on Thursday morning, witnesses and paramedics said.
A Palestinian woman, her son and a fighter were the latest casualties in an Israeli incursion.
They died when a home that belongs to Fayyad family came under Israeli shelling in Bani Suhaila area in the east of Khan Younis.
According to officials at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis, the body of the woman and her son were brought to the hospital alongside a third militant.
Witnesses said that other members of the family were still stuck under the ruins of Fayyad's house and the number of casualties may increase.
A Hamas militant was shot dead at the same area earlier at the start of the operation.
