Hamas attempts to violate ceasefire deal, targets IDF troops operating in Gaza with explosives

In a major escalation, Hamas has targeted troops of Israel, who have been holding the defences inside the Gaza Strip for the last five days as part of the ceasefire deal. The terrorist group targeted the Israeli forces with three explosive devices and the IDF soldiers operating on the ground have reported multiple injuries following the attack. 

“Over the last hour, three explosive devices were detonated adjacent to IDF troops in two different locations in the northern Gaza Strip, violating the framework of the operational pause. In one of the locations, terrorists also opened fire at the troops, who responded with fire.  A number of soldiers were lightly injured during the incidents. In both incidents, the troops were located in positions as per the framework of the operational pause,” the Israeli Defence Force said in a statement on X, formally known as Twitter. “In one of the locations, terrorists also opened fire at the troops, who responded with fire. A number of soldiers were lightly injured during the incidents. IDF troops were located in positions as per the framework of the operational pause,” IDF furthered. 

While Hamas alleged that it was done by the Israeli side, they also claimed that as a result of a clear violation by Israel of the truce agreement in the northern Gaza Strip today, field friction occurred and our mujahideen dealt with this violation.
