Palestinian media reports a series of Israeli airstrikes and artillery shelling in southern Gaza’s Rafah a short while ago.

The strikes come after Israeli forces stationed in the Rafah area came under attack by terror operatives, in an apparent violation of the ceasefire.

The IDF has not yet officially commented on the incident.
