CAIRO/JERUSALEM (Reuters) -Israeli fire killed three people near a ceasefire line in Gaza on Monday, medics said, with U.S. envoys expected in Israel to try to push forward the fragile truce that faced its gravest test so far over the weekend.

Israel has launched a new wave of strikes into Gaza and said that aid to the territory will be halted following an alleged Hamas ceasefire violation. Hamas denied responsibility.

Israeli officials said its military carried out strikes in southern Gaza after Hamas militants allegedly fired on Israeli soldiers.

Gaza's fragile ceasefire faced its first major test Sunday as Israeli forces launched a wave of deadly strikes, saying Hamas militants had killed two soldiers, and an Israeli security official said the transfer of aid into the territory was halted.

The U.S.-brokered ceasefire is back on according to President Donald Trump as American mediators Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner rush to Israel for urgent talks.
