IDF says drone strike targeted suspects operating near troops in north Gaza, planting explosive device

The Israel Defense Forces says a drone strike targeted a number of suspects who were operating near troops in the northern Gaza Strip and planting an explosive device nearby.

“The IDF will continue to act to eliminate any threat to the citizens of the State of Israel and IDF forces,” the military says.

Earlier today, Palestinian media reported several dead and injured in an Israeli drone strike in the Beit Hanoun area.

Israeli forces are still deployed to a buffer zone along the Gaza border amid the ceasefire, and the IDF has repeatedly warned Palestinians against approaching the area.
