The IDF says it carried out a drone strike against a Palestinian terror operative who crossed the Yellow Line — to which the military withdrew under the terms of the current ceasefire — in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis today.
According to the IDF, the operative had been detected crossing the Yellow Line “in a way that posed an imminent threat” to troops.
The IDF says the troops directed an Israeli Air Force drone that struck and killed the operative. Palestinian media also reported one dead in the strike.
