Isarel army says it killed 11 Palestinian fighters trapped in south Gaza

Israel’s military says it killed or captured more than a dozen Palestinian gunmen who were trapped in a tunnel under Rafah city in an area under Israeli occupation.

“A short while ago, troops operating in eastern Rafah located and apprehended an additional terrorist who attempted to flee from the underground terror infrastructure in the Rafah area,” the army said in a statement.

“At the end of a 24-hour pursuit, all 17 terrorists who attempted to flee the underground terror infrastructure in eastern Rafah were either eliminated or apprehended.”

The military said 11 Palestinians were killed and six captured.

Soldiers “remain deployed in accordance with the ceasefire agreement and will continue to operate to remove any threat, dismantle terror infrastructure and defend in the area”, it added.

That's not part of the ceasefire agreement... But it's clear the negotiations to let the remaining resistance fighters out have failed.


PM Netanyahu says Israel ‘fully honored’ Gaza ceasefire

After his army killed two dozen Palestinians in air strikes, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel has fully adhered to the Gaza ceasefire. At least 24 people were killed and 87 wounded in Gaza on Saturday, including women and children, despite the US-brokered truce.

“Today, Hamas violated the ceasefire again, sending a terrorist into Israel-held territory to attack soldiers. In response, Israel eliminated five senior Hamas terrorists,” the Prime Minister’s Office said.

“Israel has fully honored the ceasefire, Hamas has not. Throughout the ceasefire, dozens of Hamas terrorists have crossed the Israeli lines to attack our troops. We again call on the mediators to insist that Hamas fulfil its side of the ceasefire.”



The lies keep getting bolder but you can't hide the pictures of dead and injured children.
