The IDF says that since 7 a.m., following Hamas’s violation of the ceasefire, it has carried out airstrikes against some 200 targets across the Gaza Strip.
Several of the strikes took place in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis and Rafah.
Some of the strikes in northern Gaza were directed by forces of the 162nd, 36th, and 252nd divisions.
The IDF says ground troops meanwhile demolished structures that were booby-trapped with explosives, tunnel shafts, rocket launch sites, and other infrastructure belonging to Hamas.
Navy missile boats, tanks and artillery also carried out strikes in Gaza today, it adds.
Meanwhile, roughly 50 rockets have been fired at southern Israeli towns from Gaza.
