The Israeli military responded to rockets fired from the Beit Lahia area earlier in the day. In reaction, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) ordered residents of Beit Lahia and nearby areas to evacuate immediately.
Israeli military spokesperson Avichay Adraee stated that the IDF would “act forcefully and immediately against these terrorist elements” responsible for the rocket attacks.
This latest escalation is part of a broader offensive by Israel against Hamas, which began after a Hamas attack on the southern Israeli border on October 7, 2023. The attack resulted in approximately 1,200 deaths and around 250 hostages taken. The ongoing conflict has now claimed over 40,000 Palestinian lives in the Gaza Strip.
