IDF kills four Hamas fighters after Rafah tunnel breach

Israel says four Hamas militants exited a Rafah tunnel, opened fire on the IDF’s 7th Armored Brigade, and were killed in return fire. The incident occurred in eastern Rafah within the Israeli-controlled Yellow Line area amid ongoing tunnel-clearing operations; Hamas had been offered safe surrender previously but rejected it, and the violence marks a renewed breach after a similar incident earlier in the week.

Israel reportedly plans a large Rafah camp with surveillance for Gaza residents, ex-general says

A retired Israeli general claims Israel has cleared land in Rafah, southern Gaza, to build a large camp that could house hundreds of thousands of Palestinians and be equipped with entry surveillance and facial-recognition technology. The camp would accommodate Palestinians who wish to leave Gaza or stay, with ID checks. Israel’s military declined to comment; officials have discussed Rafah plans amid broader war-readiness and potential reopening of the border, while Hamas calls the idea a cover for forced displacement.

Israel launches large-scale hunt for last Gaza hostage as ceasefire talks advance

Israel says it is conducting a large-scale operation in Gaza to locate the final hostage, Ran Gvili, as U.S.-backed ceasefire negotiations press toward a second phase and a possible reopening of the Rafah crossing. The search, described in detail including a cemetery near the yellow line and involvement of rabbis and dental experts, comes amid mounting pressure and contrasting statements from Hamas. Separately, a UNRWA compound in East Jerusalem was set ablaze, prompting questions about attacks on aid agencies amid the broader conflict.
