Soldiers had earlier spotted a suspect near a tunnel entrance and chased him. About 30 minutes later, at least five terrorists burst from the tunnel and opened fire at close range.<\/p>\n<p>According to the IDF, one of the attackers fired an RPG or placed an explosive device on a Namer armored personnel carrier, injuring four soldiers \u2014 one seriously and two moderately. A fifth soldier sustained light injuries. Israeli forces killed at least two of the terrorists, while several others escaped back into the tunnel network.<\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened a security consultation following what officials described as a \u201cblatant violation\u201d of the ceasefire by Hamas. Israel informed the United States of the incident and of its intention to respond sharply, a security official said, adding that \u201cIsrael will not let the Rafah attack pass.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Later in the evening, the military said Israeli forces, acting on intelligence from Military Intelligence and the Shin Bet, carried out an airstrike that killed a Hamas terrorist in southern Gaza in response to the breach.<\/p>\n<p>Gaza media reported at least four Israeli airstrikes in western Khan Younis, claiming at least six people were killed and several others wounded in an area of tents in al-Mawasi. The IDF said its strikes targeted weapons depots, manufacturing sites, Hamas command-and-control centers and operatives, including commanders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump added: \u201cWe have peace in the Middle East, people don\u2019t&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":135225,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[42,43,40,38,41,39],"class_list":{"0":"post-167277","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/167277","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=167277"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/167277\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/135225"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=167277"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=167277"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=167277"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
