Israel Hits Gaza and Lebanon After Alleged Gunfire on Troops

The US-brokered truce faces new strain following reports of at least 25 dead from the strikes.

Overview

  • The Israeli military said it targeted multiple Hamas sites in Gaza after gunmen allegedly fired on soldiers near Khan Yunis, calling it a ceasefire violation.
  • Gaza’s Hamas-run health authority reported at least 25 killed and more than 70 wounded, figures that could not be independently verified.
  • Israeli forces reported killing several people who crossed the so-called yellow line and approached troops, an occurrence described as near-daily during the truce.
  • Israel also carried out airstrikes in southern Lebanon on buildings it said were used by Hezbollah, with Lebanon’s NNA reporting damage in several towns and no confirmed casualties.
  • Hamas has not publicly addressed the latest allegation, and the ceasefire—part of a US plan that includes hostage exchanges and partial Israeli pullback—has repeatedly come under pressure.
