Qatar’s foreign ministry said the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas will go into effect at 0630 GMT on Sunday.

The strike hit a house in the central city of Deir al-Balah late Tuesday, according to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs hospital which received the casualties. The dead included two women and four children, the hospital’s casualty list showed.

An Israeli airstrike on Gaza's Deir al-Balah killed at least 10 Palestinians and wounded others, medics told Reuters on Tuesday.

Officials say Israel and Hamas appear to be inching closer to a phased ceasefire agreement. But a deal hasn’t been reached yet.
