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

Israeli troops are still deployed inside some areas of Gaza during the ceasefire with Hamas.

The IDF says it is “determined to fully maintain the terms of the agreement in order to return the hostages,” and is “prepared for any scenario and will continue to take any necessary actions to thwart any immediate threat to IDF soldiers.”

“The IDF calls the residents of Gaza to follow its instructions and avoid approaching the troops deployed in the area,” the military adds.
