Israel claims to have targeted Hamas, PIJ in attacks that killed at least six children
The Israeli military says it has carried out air attacks across the Gaza Strip, claiming the attacks were in response to what it described as a violation of a ceasefire agreement.
In a statement, the Israeli military said its forces, along with the domestic intelligence agency, targeted individuals it described as commanders and fighters from Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
The military claimed that eight people it identified as fighters were seen emerging from what it described as underground infrastructure in eastern Rafah, and said it later carried out strikes across the Gaza Strip.
It said the attacks killed four people it identified as commanders, as well as others it described as fighters. These claims could not be independently verified.
The Israeli military also said it struck what it described as a weapons storage facility, a weapons manufacturing site, and two launch sites in central Gaza. It did not provide evidence to support the claims.
As we have reported earlier, the latest wave of Israeli attacks killed 31 people since dawn, including at least six children.

Hamas condemns Israel’s claims Gaza bombings are ‘response’
Israel’s claims that recent bombings in Gaza are a “response” to Hamas’s violations of the ceasefire agreement “are nothing but a blatant and pathetic attempt to justify the horrific massacres against civilians”, the Palestinian group has said.
“These baseless and flimsy claims confirm the [Israeli] occupation’s contempt for the mediators, the guarantour states, and all parties involved in what is called the ‘Peace Council’,” spokesperson Hazem Qassem said in a statement, referring to the committee of global leaders handpicked by Trump to oversee the US president’s 20-point plan to end Israel’s genocidal war in Gaza.
