Israeli strikes killed at least two Palestinians in Gaza and destroyed medical supply warehouses next to a hospital on August 1, a day after Hamas said it had agreed to the latest stage of a deal to end the war, AFP reported, citing Gaza's civil defence agency and medical sources.

The strikes cast doubt over the durability of the US-brokered agreement, with an Israeli political source saying there would be no withdrawal of Israeli forces without what it called genuine disarmament of Hamas. Israel has repeatedly carried out strikes during the ceasefire that has technically held since October 10, 2025, and Gaza's health ministry says more than 1,200 Palestinians have been killed since it began.

An Israeli drone strike in the Sheikh Radwan neighbourhood of Gaza City killed two people, according to al-Shifa Hospital, where the casualties were taken. A separate strike in Deir al-Balah in central Gaza killed one more, hospital sources said.

The Israeli military said it was aware of a strike in the Gaza City area on what it called a Hamas terrorist, and that it had struck several areas across Gaza and dismantled five Hamas weapons storage facilities. It said one facility was next to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital and had been used as a hideout.

An overnight strike destroyed medicine warehouses attached to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah. The Palestinian health ministry said the strike had obliterated two of the four medical supply warehouses and severely damaged the other two.

"Vital quantities of medical consumables and supplies intended for the care of patients and the wounded were lost or destroyed," the ministry said.

Gaza's health ministry said seven people were killed and 76 wounded across the territory over the past 48 hours, putting the toll since the ceasefire began at 1,222. Despite the ceasefire that went into effect in Gaza on October 11, Israeli breaches of the agreement have continued, with the death toll in the Gaza Strip rising to 73,349, since the beginning of the Israeli aggression in October 2023. At least 174,162 others have also been injured.

The strikes followed Hamas's announcement on July 31 that it had agreed to a deal championed by US President Donald Trump, including provisions to hand over its weapons to a Palestinian governing committee and a gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces.

Mark Pfeifle, a former US deputy national security adviser, told Al Jazeera the strikes signalled that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was not prepared to accept the agreement in its current form.

Hamas political bureau member Bassem Naim said the ball was in Israel's court and called on mediators to press it to halt violations of the ceasefire. Restrictions on media and limited access in Gaza prevent independent verification of tolls.
