The Israeli military reported that it killed four Palestinian militants who emerged from a tunnel in eastern Rafah and allegedly fired upon Israeli forces. This incident has been labeled by the Israeli military as a clear violation of the ceasefire agreement that was put in place to reduce hostilities in the region. The spokesperson for the Israeli Defense Forces emphasized that their troops are deployed in accordance with the ceasefire terms but will take action against any threats they identify.

In addition to this incident, reports from medical sources in Gaza indicated that a Palestinian was killed by Israeli fire in the Al-Zeitoun neighborhood of northern Gaza, outside of the designated operational areas. This violence came amid heavy artillery bombardment across various parts of Gaza, raising concerns about the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the area. The situation remains tense as the Israeli military conducted airstrikes in Rafah and artillery fire targeted wide areas in Beit Lahiya.

Furthermore, Israeli naval forces fired upon locations off the coast of Khan Yunis, compounding concerns regarding civilian safety and exacerbating the existing humanitarian issues. With airstrikes and artillery barrages reported throughout the region, there is increasing alarm regarding the fragile situation, particularly given the international community's calls for a lasting resolution and adherence to ceasefire agreements in the ongoing conflict.
