Israeli planes hit the Gaza home of Ismail Haniyeh, head of the Hamas Political Bureau, last night. This was made known by the army, according to which the house "was used as a terror infrastructure and often hosted meetings of Hamas leaders to direct terrorist acts against Israeli civilians and soldiers ."

Israeli soldiers also located and destroyed a Hamas naval force weapons depot "containing diving equipment, explosive devices and weapons."

The troops - continued the army spokesperson, still referring to the operation in Shati in the north of the Strip - also "hit the terrorists and located weapons including explosive belts, explosive barrels, grenade launchers, anti-tank missiles, communication equipment and documents of intelligence".

Clashes are also taking place in the West Bank , where three armed Palestinians were killed after wounding six Israeli civilians in an armed ambush at the entrance to a tunnel in the Bethlehem area. Among the wounded Israelis, one is in serious condition. The police sent reinforcements to the area of the attack, fearing that the attack is not yet over.

Meanwhile, Israel's operations continue in the main hospital in Gaza, considered a strategic military site for Hamas. « We will carry out a targeted operation in al-Shifa hospital. We continue to move forward ,” General Yaron Finkelman said late yesterday on the army's Telegram channel. Israel accuses Hamas of using al-Shifa hospital as a military base. The Israeli army claims to have found "ammunition, weapons and military equipment" there.

There is still a stalemate on the humanitarian truce and negotiations to free the hostages. Israel rejected the UN Security Council resolution calling for "urgent and prolonged humanitarian pauses and corridors across Gaza for a number of days" . The Jewish state's Foreign Ministry issued a statement saying there is no place for such measures as long as the hostages are held in the hands of Hamas. According to Israel's ambassador to the UN, Gilad Erdan, the resolution is "detached from reality and it is regrettable that the Council continues to ignore and refuses to condemn or even mention the massacre carried out by Hamas."
