Six soldiers from Israel killed in separate incidents in Gaza and the West Bank
In a series of shocking incidents, the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict has claimed more lives and caused chaos on both sides of the border.
On Thursday morning, a roadside bomb attack in the Rafah area of southern Gaza killed four Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers and wounded three others. The bomb was detonated as an armored bulldozer was clearing a route, and investigations are ongoing to determine the type of explosive used, how it was activated, and when it was placed.
In a separate incident, a truck carrying displaced people was hit by an Israeli strike in Gaza. The death toll in Gaza City has now exceeded 65,000.
Meanwhile, in the Israeli-run border crossing between Jordan and the occupied West Bank, an attack resulted in the killing of two more soldiers. The attacker, whose nationality is implied to be Jordanian since the truck came from Jordan, was neutralized by Israeli troops.
In a possible related incident, a drone reportedly struck in the area of the southern Israeli city of Eilat. However, it remains unclear if this drone strike is related to the ongoing conflict.
The Israeli military is continuing its offensive in Gaza City, with troops deployed to scan the area for further threats following the West Bank attack.
Amidst the violence, protests calling for a Gaza ceasefire have been held in Tel Aviv.
In a tragic turn of events, Abdel-Mutalib al-Qaisi, a man in his late 50s, was identified as the shooter in an attack that occurred during operations in Rafah's Jenina neighborhood. Al-Qaisi had been driving aid trucks bound for Gaza for three months.
The Jordanian Foreign Ministry has strongly condemned the attack on the Israeli-Jordanian border. As the conflict continues, both sides are urgently calling for a peaceful resolution to the ongoing violence.
