A pre-dawn 'Israeli' airstrike killed three members of a Palestinian family, including a one-year-old child, in central Gaza on Sunday, a hospital said.

Gaza remains gripped with daily violence despite a formal ceasefire in place since October.

Al-Aqsa Martyrs hospital in Deir el-Balah said it had received the bodies of a couple and their infant after an Israeli strike hit a residental apartment in the Al-Nuseirat camp before dawn.

The hospital said around 10 people were wounded.

There was no immediate comment from the 'Israeli' military about the three deaths, though it said it had struck three allegedly Hamas weapons storage facilities in central Gaza over the preceding 24 hours.

A ceasefire has been in place in Gaza since October, but 'Israel' continues to revoke the agreement on a daily basis. 

At least 890 Palestinians have been killed since the October 10 ceasefire, according to Gaza's health ministry, whose figures are considered reliable by the UN.

The 'Israeli' military says five of its soldiers have also been during the same period.

Media restrictions and limited access in Gaza have prevented journalists from independently verifying casualty figures or freely covering the fighting.
