The Israeli military stated that "over the past day, we conducted airstrikes on more than 30 Hamas terror infrastructure sites, including structures containing explosives, underground facilities, and weapons storage depots."

During this period, the Israeli military killed 20 Hamas militants near Rafah, the southern Gaza Strip border with Egypt. They also reported killing members of the Hamas armed group Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) in Khan Yunis.

In an Arabic statement, the Israeli military announced a new evacuation order for the Khan Yunis area and urged local residents to move to designated "humanitarian zones."

Israel will participate in the ceasefire negotiations resuming in the afternoon in Doha, Qatar, alongside mediators from the United States, Egypt, and Qatar. Earlier, Hamas announced that it would not participate in this meeting.
