The southern arena: The IDF forces continued their activity in the southern Gaza Strip, mainly in the Hamad neighborhood in the northwest of Khan Yunis and in the neighborhoods to the east of the city. In the central and northern Gaza Strip, the forces took action mainly against armed terrorist operatives and rocket launchers. Following the IDF spokesperson’s announcement of the probable killing of Marwan Issa, acting commander of Hamas’ military-terrorist wing, the ministry of interior and national security in Gaza warned local residents to trust information issued only by official Palestinian sources. Muhammad Nazzal, a member of the Hamas political bureau, said the truth of the IDF claims had not yet been proved and to rely on the version provided by Hamas’ military wing, which had not yet issued a statement.
