The IDF says it fired warning shots after Palestinian suspects approached troops in several areas of the Gaza Strip today.

In one incident in central Gaza, the military says soldiers shot a suspect who did not withdraw after warning shots were fired.

Additionally, a drone strike was carried out in central Gaza as a warning to prevent a car from driving to the Strip’s north via an unapproved route, the IDF says.

Vehicular traffic is only permitted on the Salah a-Din road, where a private company is inspecting Palestinian cars heading north.

At sea, the military says the Israeli Navy spotted a Palestinian vessel that went out past a maritime boundary. After warning shots, the vessel returned to the coast of Gaza, the IDF adds.
