The IDF says it killed three “terrorists” in separate incidents across the Gaza Strip today after they crossed the Yellow Line and approached Israeli troops, posing what the military describes as an “immediate threat.”

According to the army, forces from the 188th Armored Brigade operating in southern Gaza identified three suspects who breached the ceasefire line. One of the suspects allegedly attempted to steal IDF equipment before fleeing, and was later killed in an air force strike on the Hamas-controlled side of the Yellow Line.

In two additional incidents in northern Gaza, troops from the Gaza Division’s Northern Brigade and the Jerusalem Brigade identified other suspects who had also crossed the Yellow Line and moved toward Israeli forces. The soldiers opened fire, killing two of them, the IDF says.

The military says its Southern Command forces remain deployed in the area in accordance with the existing terms of the ceasefire and will continue to act to remove any immediate threat.
