Israeli army says it killed Islamic Jihad member in Gaza despite truce

It also involves the gradual withdrawal of the army from the most populated areas of the Gaza Strip and the massive entry of humanitarian aid into a territory ravaged by 15 months of war.

“In several areas of the Gaza Strip, masked suspects were identified approaching troops (…) who fired warning shots to ward them off,” the army added.

However, she says she is “determined to fully respect the terms of the agreement in order to bring back the hostages” but remains “prepared for any scenario and will continue to take all necessary measures to thwart any immediate threat.”

The Israeli army calls on “Palestinians to follow its instructions and avoid approaching troops deployed in the area.”
