An Israeli military official confirmed the strikes to Fox News on Sunday, pointing to attacks by Hamas since Friday. The IDF later confirmed that it was taking actions in Gaza. “Earlier today, terrorists fired an anti-tank missile and gunfire toward IDF troops operating to dismantle terrorist infrastructure in the Rafah area, in southern Gaza, in accordance with the ceasefire agreement,” the IDF said in a statement. “In response, the IDF has begun striking in the area to eliminate the threat and dismantle tunnel shafts and military structures used for terrorist activity,” it continued. Israel has responded by striking areas in the north and south of the Gaza Strip. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office says he has instructed the minister of defense and other security heads to “act forcefully” in reaction to the attacks. Hamas claims it has “no knowledge” of any attacks against Israeli forces, releasing a statement on Sunday saying they were still abiding by the terms of the agreement. “We affirm our full commitment to implementing everything that has been agreed upon, foremost among which is the ceasefire in all areas of the Gaza Strip. We have no knowledge of any events or clashes taking place in the Rafah area,” the group wrote. Israel has resumed bombing in southern Gaza, breaking the ceasefire, after alleged violations by Hamas. National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has called for a resumption of fighting in the Gaza Strip at “full strength.” Follow: @AFpost pic.twitter.com/vC89Hwlwjz — AF Post (@AFpost) October 19, 2025 Thought?
