1:14Now PlayingThe Israeli military is opening criminal investigations into two high-profile killings by its troops in Gaza.
The deaths of 5 year-old Hind Rajab and her family in 2024, as well as the fatal shooting of 15 Palestinian medical workers the following year, caused international outrage.
The cases were among 150 incidents reviewed by the military.
The news came as local Palestinian officials say at least 10 people were killed in two strikes in Gaza Wednesday. Israel says it was targeting Hamas commanders.
Following the strikes, a Hamas official accused the U.S.-backed Board of Peace as providing cover for Israeli attacks.
The board was formally established earlier this year to oversee the cease-fire and reconstruction of Gaza and other conflicts.
