An Israeli drone strike killed three Palestinians who crossed the ceasefire line near the Morag Corridor, in the central Gaza Strip, hospital officials said.
The Israeli military said three individuals approached soldiers and posed an immediate threat.
Weapons and intelligence-gathering equipment were later found in their possession.
The drone attack took place yesterday, while the Gaza Strip is awaiting the formation of a Peace Committee that should oversee the administration of the Palestinian territory.
Hamas has announced that it will dissolve its current government once a new committee takes over the territory, as stipulated in a peace plan brokered by the United States (US).
According to the Gaza Health Ministry, more than 440 people have been killed since Israel and Hamas reached a deal last October to halt the two-year war.
Since then, both sides have accused each other of violating the ceasefire.
