ALBAWABA - Israeli Army Radio, quoting a security official that the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip will resume at 10:00 a.m. local time.
Local media in Israel reported that clashes erupted between the army and Hamas fighters in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
These clashes were followed by a series of Israeli strikes on various areas of the Strip, marking the most intense escalation since the Sharm el-Sheikh ceasefire agreement. Mediators urged Hamas and Israel to adhere to the terms of the peace deal.
Walla news agency detailed that Hamas militants came from an underground tunnel network in the al-Janina neighborhood of Rafah and engaged in a gunfight with Israeli forces carrying out a complex engineering operation.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered on Tuesday night to resume airstrikes across Gaza, shattering a fragile U.S.-brokered ceasefire amid renewed tensions with Hamas.
