Claim 2: “An Israeli airstrike on a police vehicle in Gaza City killed at least four people”
DISPUTED
Multiple web search results report Israeli airstrikes on police vehicles/posts, but they provide contradictory details regarding the location and death toll: one source reports at least four killed in Gaza City, another reports at least four killed in Deir Al-Balah, and a third reports nine officers killed in the center of the territory. Because the specific location (Gaza City) and death toll (at least four) are contradicted by other reports of similar events, it is marked as disputed.
