[Regnum] Israel has resumed observing the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip following strikes on dozens of Hamas targets. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Spokesperson's Office announced this on October 29.

"In accordance with the directive of the political leadership and following a series of strikes that hit dozens of targets and terrorists, the IDF has resumed observing the ceasefire," the statement said.

It is noted that 30 Hamas members who held command positions were liquidated.

On October 19, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Hamas of violating the ceasefire and ordered the military to take retaliatory action against Palestinian militias.

On October 28, Netanyahu ordered immediate, powerful strikes on the Gaza Strip. That evening, the IDF struck Gaza City. One rocket landed near the al-Shifa Hospital. Hamas political bureau member Suheil al-Hindi stated that the organization remains committed to the ceasefire.

More than 90 people have been killed in new Israeli strikes on Gaza.

Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip have killed 91 people, Al Jazeera reported on October 29.

Sources in the Palestinian enclave's emergency services reported casualties in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) strike. According to them, 48 people were killed in Gaza City, six of whom "were targeted by occupation forces while attempting to obtain food."

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused the Palestinian movement Hamas of violating the ceasefire and attacking IDF troops in the Rafah area. The Palestinians denied any involvement in the incident.

The view from Israel:
IDF strikes site in northern Gaza it says posed ‘imminent’ threat to troops
[IsraelTimes] The IDF says it carried out a strike on a site in the northern Gaza Strip that was being used by terror operatives to store weapons and “aerial means.”

The “terror infrastructure site” in the Beit Lahiya area was intended to be used for an “imminent” attack on Israeli soldiers and against Israel, the military says. The IDF does not elaborate further on the weapons and the “aerial means.”

The IDF publishes footage of the site and of the strike.

The IDF says it remains deployed in Gaza “in accordance with the ceasefire agreement and will continue to operate to remove any immediate threat.”

IDF says Gaza strikes targeted battalion and company commanders, weapons sites, tunnels
[IsraelTimes] The IDF specifies the Hamas commanders it targeted during its strikes in the Gaza Strip in the past day, in response to the terror group’s violations of the ceasefire deal.

Among those confirmed killed in the strikes are several terrorists who participated in the October 7, 2023, onslaught, according to the military.

The military says its strikes targeted dozens of terror operatives, including two battalion-level commanders, two deputy battalion commanders, and 16 company commanders in Hamas and other terror groups.

The strikes also targeted observation posts, weapon manufacturing sites, rocket launching sites, and tunnels, according to the IDF.

The military says it is not able to confirm yet that the Hamas commanders it targeted were killed in the strikes.

The IDF does, however, name several terrorists who it says infiltrated Israel on October 7 and were killed in the strikes in the past day.

They include: Muhammad Issa, a platoon commander in Hamas’s Nukhba Force; Fawaz Uwayda, a Nukhba Force cell commander; Muhammad Abu Shari’a and Nidal Abu Shari’a, both members of the Mujahideen Brigade’s terror group; and Hatem Maher Mousa Qudra, a Nukhba Force company commander who led the attack on Kibbutz Ein Hashlosha on October 7.



Gaza officials say over 100 killed in Israeli strikes
[IsraelTimes] Gaza’s Hamas-run civil defense agency and hospitals says that a series of Israeli strikes overnight and this morning killed more than 100 people across the Palestinian territory.

“At least 101 fatalities were brought to hospitals, including 35 children and a number of women and elderly, as a result of Israeli airstrikes in less than 12 hours,” says Mahmud Bassal, spokesman for the agency, which operates as a rescue force under Hamas authority. The toll is confirmed by an AFP tally of reports from medical officials at five Gaza hospitals that received the dead and wounded.

Israel says it hit dozens of terror targets and terror operatives in response to ceasefire violations by Hamas. It says the ceasefire is now back in effect.
