[NY Post] Oh noes! Now who will nanny the kids and cut the lawns?
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agents in New England executed a joint operation on Nantucket, Massachusetts, to arrest “illegal criminal aliens” on Tuesday.
In a post on X, the DEA New England division said its agents assisted ICE and ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Boston with the arrests on the idyllic and posh summer vacation destination island situated 30 miles south of Cape Cod.
The Nantucket Current reported that the DEA confirmed it had arrested a man previously charged with kidnapping and domestic assault and battery, as well as a woman.
Authorities did not identify the suspects’ names or countries of origin.

[Garowe] The United Arab Emirates (UAE) struct several bases controlled by the ISIS snuffies in Somalia, uplifting the spirits of the local forces, who have religiously fought the group, whose expansion of territory was a reality a few months ago.
The ISIS turbans, mostly foreigners, had established more permanent bases in Puntland ...a region in northeastern Somalia, centered on Garowe in the Nugaal province. Its leaders declared the territory an autonomous state in 1998. Puntland and the equally autonomous Somaliland seem to have avoided the clan rivalries and warlordism that have typified the rest of Somalia, which puts both places high on the list for Islamic subversion... state, with the ultimate goal being destabilization of the northern state of Somalia — the most stable federal state of the five regions.
According to the Puntland counterterrorism command center, the Monday night Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s targeted the bases deep in the caves of Cal-Miskaad mountains where the group has lost large swathes of territories in recent weeks.
"An airstrike has just taken place in the Miiraale Valley, within the Calmiskaad mountain range, targeting fleeing ISIS Death Eaters who were regrouping. The strike was carried out by Puntland’s allies from UAE," the command said.
However,
a hangover is the wrath of grapes... the command center, which has been giving regular updates on Operation Lightning, did not mention if there were any casualties. The strike came barely a day after the Puntland forces seized a sniper training camp used by ISIS in the Dibi-Ganuun area of al-Miskad.
Several ISIS snuffies have been killed in the last two months with dozens getting arrested by the local forces as the operation nears the end. Already, the Puntland forces have destroyed some of the hideouts believed to have been hosting Abdulkadir Mumin, the global leader of the group.
"As long as a foreign invader lives on our land, we must be ready to sacrifice our lives to defend our country. We carry weapons and fight to eliminate the foreign Death Eaters who have invaded," said Second Lieutenant Jaamac Cumar, an officer with the Puntland forces.
The entry of the UAE airwing is expected to boost the Puntland command and deal a further blow to the ISIS terrorist organization. Also in the aerial surveillance team are the US Africa Command forces, who work jointly with the Puntland forces.
I think this is more on this story from yesterday.
[ShabelleMedia] Al-Shabaab ... an Islamic infestation centering on Somalia attempting to metastasize into Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and similar places, all ofwhich have enough problems without them... holy warriors stormed a hotel in central Somalia’s Beledweyne on Tuesday, killing at least seven people, including local elders and officials, in a deadly siege that underscored the persistent threat of the al-Qaeda-linked group.
The attack on the Qahira Hotel began early Tuesday with an explosives-laden vehicle detonating outside the building, followed by button men who entered the premises, according to police and witnesses. The hotel was hosting a meeting of local elders and government officials discussing strategies to counter the Islamist insurgency when the assault occurred.
Dahir Amin Jesow, a federal politician said that security forces engaged the attackers in a prolonged firefight, eventually killing the holy warriors and ending the siege. Among the dead were two prominent elders, Aden Ali and Mohammed Osman, and Major Aden Mohamud, a military officer, local authorities confirmed.
Al-Shabaab grabbed credit for the attack, asserting in a statement that it had killed more than 10 people. The group frequently targets government officials and civilians in its campaign to overthrow Somalia’s central government.
"Hours after the initial assault, government forces were still flushing out fighters from nearby alleys," Jesow said, noting that some holy warriors had been killed outside the hotel. The exact number of attackers remained unclear, though estimates ranged from six to seven button men.
Beledweyne, located about 208 miles north of the capital, Mogadishu, is a strategic hub in the ongoing conflict with al-Shabaab. The attack follows a pattern of brazen assaults by the group, including a suicide kaboom last year at a Mogadishu beach hotel that killed 37 people.
[Garowe] Somalia's security forces neutralized 3 Al-Shabaab attackers who initiated the attack within Qahira Hotel in the city of Beledweyne, multiple sources confirmed, but the exact number of the masterminds killed in the operation was not immediately revealed.
Sources said the security teams overpowered the militants who had caused massive losses on the premises, killing them after a lengthy exchange of fire between the two groups. The militants are said to have targeted a meeting seeking solutions to eliminating them.
Government officials said at least eleven people were killed including two elders and a man who had been blinded in a previous al-Shabaab attack in Beledweyne three years ago, this month — given their dedication in the fight against the group.
Somalia’s minister of health Ali Haji Adam condemned the “cowardly” Al-Shabaab attack in Beledweyne, confirming that two prominent elders — Adan Raaxa Jecel and Mohamed Osman Farah are among the 7 dead.
The elders are said to have attended a meeting seeking solutions to eliminating the group from the Hiiraan region, which has been the face of the Al-Shabaab crackdown across the country — it is in this region that the first phase of Al-Shabaab crackdown was launched in 2022.
Al-Shabaab militants launched the complex attack on the hotel in the central Somalia town of Beledweyne at the time security forces have intensified operations against the group in central and southern regions in the country where the influence of the group cannot be underestimated.
The militants detonated an explosion followed by gunmen who stormed the hotel where elders and activists were meeting to discuss anti-al-Shabaab mobilizations in western parts of the Hiran region, sources said.
[ShabelleMedia] The Somali government reported on Sunday that 16 al-Shabaab ... Somalia's version of the Taliban, functioning as an arm of al-Qaeda... fighters were killed in two separate Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s in the vicinity of Basra, in the Lower Shabelle region, late on Saturday night.
Basra, a strategic farming area located between Bal’ad and Afgoye, has been a hotspot for al-Shabaab activity despite repeated airstrikes and ground operations targeting the group in the past.
The latest airstrikes are part of ongoing efforts by Somali forces to weaken the murderous Moslem group’s foothold in the region.
The Somali military confirmed that the airstrikes had successfully hit al-Shabaab targets, resulting in significant casualties.
The attack is seen as part of the government’s intensified campaign to eliminate al-Shabaab’s presence in key areas of southern Somalia.
Al-Shabaab has maintained a stronghold in Lower Shabelle, using its terrain for logistical and operational purposes.
The Somali government continues to prioritize the region in its ongoing battle to counter the group’s influence and restore security to the area.
[IsraelTimes] Member of banned Islamist group denies hailing the stabbing of four people in Tel Aviv as the beginning of a ‘blessed racist campaign’; lawyer says he will appeal ruling
A Moroccan Islamist activist has been sentenced to two years in prison for "incitement to hatred" over social media posts praising a stabbing attack in Israel, his lawyer said on Tuesday.
Redouane El Kastit, a member of the banned but tolerated Al Adl Wal Ihssane movement,
…like the Muslim Brotherhood, they want to move Morocco toward ever greater Islamisation through the seduction of charities and university social groups, the latter because the founder was a n inspector in the education ministry…
was sentenced by a court in Tangier late Monday, his lawyer Mohammed Serroukh told AFP.
El Kastit was arrested on February 5 and charged with "incitement to hatred," "discrimination," and "insulting a public body" after about 15 posts he made on Facebook, his lawyer said.
According to the prosecution, the posts described a late-January stabbing of four people in Tel Aviv as the start of a "blessed racist campaign."
El Kastit denied making the posts on social media, the lawyer added.
He was also accused of posting a photo of the attacker, Abdelaziz Kaddi, and praising his Moroccan identity.
"The court considered this an endorsement of a terrorist act," Serroukh said.
The lawyer said he will appeal the "harsh ruling."
Kaddi, a US green card holder, arrived at Ben Gurion International Airport in late January and was granted entry by border authorities after being questioned by the Shin Bet, despite his profile reportedly raising some suspicions. Days later, he stabbed four people in Tel Aviv, two of whom were hospitalized in moderate condition. He was shot and killed during the attack.
Israel and Morocco normalized diplomatic relations in 2020. Since the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas ..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,... war, Moroccans have demonstrated in the tens of thousands against the kingdom’s ties with the Jewish state and in support of Paleostinians.

I'm guessing the Houthis will have some sort of "surprise" ahead of them, when the time is right.
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[KavkazUzel] A resident of Dagestan has been arrested on suspicion of involvement in a terrorist group, of which the investigation believes the four people killed in a shootout with security forces are members.
As the "Caucasian Knot" reported, on the night of March 5, a counter-terrorist operation regime was declared in the Makhachkala village of Semender. Four people were killed in a shootout with security forces, and the Anti-Terrorist Committee declared them militants of the banned terrorist organization "Islamic State." The CTO regime was lifted that morning. All of the dead were residents of Dagestan.
According to the Dagestan operational headquarters, the security forces were checking information about possible preparations for a terrorist attack. During the arrest attempt, several people opened fire from automatic weapons at the traffic police officers. They were then blocked in one of the houses.
A criminal case on the creation of a terrorist community and participation in it (parts 1 and 2 of Article 205.4 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) is being investigated in Dagestan, the republican department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation reported today.
"On March 5, 2025, during operational activities during armed resistance, four members of the terrorist community were neutralized. The fifth member was detained and a preventive measure in the form of detention was chosen for him," the department's Telegram channel said.
According to the investigation, no later than June 2024, two residents of Dagestan united into a terrorist community to prepare to create an armed group. "No later than November 2024, three more residents of the republic joined the said terrorist community," the department stated.
[HotAir] College students in New York held various walkouts today so they would be free to spend the day protesting on behalf of pro-Hamas ..a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",... organizer Mamoud Khalil. It then became a gathering in Washington Square Park. The NY Post says there were about 350 people.
There were long, screechy speeches.
The group made their way to the NYC DHS building at which point police began to warn them about blocking the streets.
Again, the NYPD warns that protesters need to either keep marching or stay on the sidewalk. "You got two minutes. You gotta start moving again," the officer tells them. Their response is to literally slow-walk as they continue chanting.
Looks like a group of protesters decided to stand in the street holding hands and blocking traffic so police did start making arrests.
Arrests being made and marchers resisting arrest. It's FAFO time.
A dozen were arrested.
About a dozen protesters were cuffed as they clashed with NYPD officers during a demonstration in support of former Columbia University student Mahmoud Khalil Tuesday afternoon, law enforcement sources said.
Cops swarmed in to make arrests after throngs of protesters blocked a downtown Manhattan street, despite repeated warnings from police to clear the roadway.
BREAKING: Mass arrests outside NYC City Hall as Pro-Palestine Protesters refuse to leave the roadway as they marched against Mahmoud Khalil arrest.
A senior State Department official told Fox News that Rubio found Khalil's "presence and activities in the U.S. would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States and would compromise a compelling U.S. foreign policy interest, rendering him deportable under Section 237 (a)(4)(C) of the INA [Immigration & Nationality Act]."
The official said Section 237 of the Immigration and Nationality Act broadly contains grounds for which an alien who is in the U.S. after having been admitted or having had his or her status adjusted to that of lawful permanent resident may be removed.
Fox News is told that Section 237 (a)(4)(C) is a rarely used provision of the law that gives the secretary of state the power to seek to deport "[a]n alien whose presence or activities in the United States the Secretary of State has reasonable ground to believe would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States…"
The senior State Department official stressed this is about national security, not free speech.
In a statement on Monday, Trump reiterated that “pro-terrorist, anti-Semitic, anti-American activity” will not be tolerated, noting that many protesters on campuses are “paid agitators.” (The Department of Homeland Security and the White House declined to comment on further actions at any other schools or how many arrests may be made in the coming weeks.)
Trump is right about "paid agitators." On July 9, Joe Biden's Director of National Intelligence, Avril Haines, stated that the Islamic Republic of Iran has been funding some of the pro-Hamas demonstrations. Haines said that the Iranian regime has “become increasingly aggressive in their foreign influence efforts” and has “sought to opportunistically take advantage of ongoing protests regarding the war in Gaza.”
Skidmark gives us the Daily Mail’s take on the day here, with lots of photos, adding:
Dozens were arrested in New York City after swarming the streets to protest the arrest of 'pro-Hamas' rioter Mahmoud Khalil.
Student activists staged a sit-in at Columbia University on Tuesday, before hundreds of protestors descended on Washington Square Park, reported CBS News.
The group moved from the park, and marched through Lower Manhattan. Some protesters were arrested at City Hall, although police have not provided a total number of arrests as yet.
Columbia University protest ringleader Mahmoud Khalil was being investigated as a potential national security threat, a source said Monday — as President Trump warned that the anti-Israel agitator’s bust will be the “first arrest of many.”
Secretary of State Marco Rubio was “presented with intelligence” that determined that Khalil — a Syrian-born Palestinian who received his graduate degree from the elite school in December — was a threat to national security, a White House source said.
It wasn’t immediately known what intelligence Rubio was shown. But the source said the Department of Homeland Security has been “gathering intel” on those “actively engaging in supporting Hamas” — not just everyday protesters — since Trump’s executive order cracking down on anti-Israel demonstrators in the US on green cards.
Khalil, 30, was arrested at his university-owned apartment on Saturday, and is now confined at Jena/LaSalle Detention Facility in Louisiana, according to ICE records and a statement by his attorney, Amy Greer.
“They’re staging this guy for removal, but I don’t know where they’re gonna send him. We don’t have charter flights to send him to Syria,” another source said.
A Manhattan federal judge temporarily halted Khalil’s deportation Monday after the Columbia grad filed a petition with the court alleging that ICE had detained him illegally.
A little more from the Times of Israel Except apparently habeus corpus petitions are supposed to be filed in district court where the prisoner is being held. That is to say, in Louisiana, not the Southern District (Manhattan) of New York. Today’s session in NYC should be interesting.
Khalil, who earned his graduate degree at the School of International and Public Affairs, was the lead negotiator for Columbia United Apartheid Divest — a group that sympathizes with terror organizations like Hamas and Hezbollah and calls for the “end of Western civilization” — during last spring’s anti-Israel protests and student encampment at the university.
[GEO.TV] Separately, investigation sources have said that two terrorists, out of the 16 who attacked the Bannu Cantonment on March 4, have been identified as Abdul Hadi alias Hamas ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,... Mohajir and Shamsullah.
Both the snuffies hail from Afghanistan's eastern Paktika ...which coincidentally borders North Wazoo and Kurram Agency... province, the sources said, adding that details were being gathered about other terrorists.
They also said the incident involved security forces' successful thwarting of a cowardly terrorist attack on Bannu Cantonment in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, killing all 16 snuffies who attempted to intrude into the facility.
The attackers, in their desperation, rammed two explosive-laden vehicles into the perimeter wall.
However,
corruption finds a dozen alibis for its evil deeds... in the exchange of fire, five soldiers were martyred. Meanwhile,
...back at the cheese factory, all the pieces finally fell together in Fluffy's mind... multiple suicide kabooms resulted in the partial collapse of the perimeter wall, causing damage to the adjacent infrastructure.
Tragically, a mosque and a civilian residential building in close proximity also suffered severe destruction, leading to the martyrdom of thirteen civilians and injuries to 32

[GEO.TV] As Pakistain continues to reel from the increased terror attacks in recent months, the country has warned the United Nations ...the Oyster Bay money pit... Security Council (UNSC) that the outlawed Tehrik-e-Taliban ...Arabic for students... Pakistain (TTP) is emerging as an umbrella organization for regional terror groups.
The warning was highlighted by Pakistain's Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Munir Akram during a UNSC meeting on Tuesday concerning the situation in Afghanistan wherein the envoy accentuated that the greatest threat to security and stability to the region arose from more than 20 terrorist organizations present in the neighbouring country.
Envoy Akram's remarks come against the backdrop of Pakistain's ongoing efforts to curb the menace of terrorism as the country, as per a Global Terrorism Index 2025 report, has emerged as the second-most terrorism-affected nation in the world.
Placed at the second spot from its previously fourth position — witnessed an alarming 45% increase in terrorism-related deaths with the total rising from 748 in 2023 to 1,081 in 2024 — one of the steepest surges globally.
The number of terror attacks more than doubled from 517 in 2023 to 1,099 in 2024, which also marked the first year that attacks exceeded the 1,000 mark since the inception of the Index.
The increase in terrorist attacks, as per the report, coincides with the rise of the Afghan Taliban to power in Kabul.
Undeterred, the country's security forces continue to take significant action against snuffies and even arrested Mohammad Sharifullah alias Jafar — a ISIS-Khorasan operative — on intelligence provided by America's Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and handed him over to the United States.
The terrorist's arrest holds significance due to his status as the main suspect in the attack on the Abbey Gate suicide kaboom at the Kabul Airport in Afghanistan in 2021 which resulted in the deaths of at least 170 Afghans as well as 13 US troops.

[NYT] Separatist militants hijacked a train carrying more than 400 people in an isolated mountainous area of southwestern Pakistan on Tuesday. The fate of the passengers, dozens of whom the militants said they were holding hostage, was not immediately clear.
The militants, Baloch ethnic fighters, forced the train to stop in the Bolan district of Balochistan Province after opening fire on it, according to railway and police officials. The train was traveling from Quetta, the capital of Balochistan, to Peshawar, the capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province. It was to pass through several cities, including Lahore and Rawalpindi, near Islamabad.
Armed militants have taken 450 passengers hostage and wounded the train driver during a 'terrorist attack' in Pakistan's volatile southwestern Balochistan province, officials said.
The separatist Baloch Liberation Army has threatened to execute all the hostages it has in its custody if the Pakistani authorities attempt to intervene.
'Over 450 passengers onboard are being held hostage by gunmen,' Muhammad Kashif, a senior railway government official in Quetta, the capital of the province, told reporters.
The train was trapped inside a tunnel after the attack, during which it came under fire and the driver was wounded, police and railway officials said.
In a statement, the BLA claimed responsibility for the hijacking and said six military personnel had been killed in the gunfight.
The group said they had taken hostages from the train, including security forces, with the exact number in their custody unclear.
'During this operation, BLA fighters have released women, children, and Baloch passengers, ensuring that all remaining hostages are serving personnel of the occupying forces,' the group said in a statement.
No contact has been established with the 450 passengers and staff aboard the nine-coach train, railway officials told local media.
The Jaffar Express had been on its way from Quetta in Pakistan's southwestern Balochistan province to Peshawar in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa when it was fired on, officials said.
A decades-old insurgency in Balochistan by separatist militant groups has led to frequent attacks against the government, army and Chinese interests in the region, pressing demands for a share in its resources.
The oil- and mineral-rich Balochistan is Pakistan's largest but also least populated province.
It is a hub for the country's ethnic Baloch minority whose members say they face discrimination and exploitation by the central government.
The BLA seeks independence for Balochistan. It is the biggest of several ethnic insurgent groups that have battled the South Asian nation's government for decades, saying it unfairly exploits Balochistan's rich gas and mineral resources.
Pakistani insurgents took over a passenger train carrying an estimated 500 people on Tuesday, with the separatists threatening to kill some 182 hostages if their demands were not met.
The Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) blew up the tracks for the Jaffar Express train traveling through a tunnel in southwest Balochistan, killing at least 20 people in a subsequent shootout before hijacking the locomotive, local officials said.
The BLA claimed it freed all civilians on board the train, keeping about 182 alleged military and police personnel as hostages to exchange for the release of prisoners belonging to the separatist group.
The BLA, who has engaged in “intense” shootouts with responding forces, warned the Pakistani military not to interfere in the intense confrontation or else “all hostages will be executed.”
Balochistan officials have denied that there are any military officers on the train, slamming the attack as “an act of terrorism” threatening the lives of innocent civilians.
Imran Hayat, a senior official for Pakistan Railways, also refuted the BLA’s claim that it only killed Pakistani soldiers, noting that the train conductor was also killed in the assault, CNN reports.

[GEO.TV] Palestinian Authority security forces have shot and killed a fighter involved in armed resistance against Israel in the occupied West Bank, reported Al Jazeera, citing sources.
The report identified the slain fighter as Abdul-Rahman Abu Muna.
[IsraelTimes] IDF says three armed Palestinians shot during Jenin clash amid ‘Iron Wall’ operation; PA forces said to take out senior terror operative Abdel Rahman Abu Muna, angering Hamas
Israeli troops killed three armed bandidosmurderous Moslems and arrested 10 terror suspects in the northern West Bank amid ongoing counterterror operations there, authorities said Tuesday.
Paleostinian Authority security forces also killed a senior terror operative in Jenin on Monday night, according to Paleostinian media.
Soldiers working together with police special forces and Shin Bet agents "encountered a number of armed bandidosmurderous Moslems who had barricaded themselves in a building in Jenin, and after an exchange of fire, they killed two of the bandidosmurderous Moslems and maimed another terrorist," according to a joint statement from the Israel Defense Forces, the Shin Bet and police.
In a separate incident, also in Jenin, troops from the Duvdevan unit killed a gunman who opened fire on them.
The Paleostinian Health Ministry said it had been informed by Israeli authorities "about the martyrdom of two citizens" who were rubbed out on Tuesday morning.
The ministry said Fayza Ibrahim Abu Ghali, 58, was "martyred due to the occupation’s aggression on Jenin." It did not offer further details on how she was killed. When AFP contacted the military about her death, it did not offer an immediate response.
The ministry also said Ahmad Fathi Ahmad Salah, 32, was killed "when he was run over by an occupation vehicle in Jenin."
Israel said it also arrested terror suspects, among them Liwa Jaz, whom it described as a senior terror operative in the Jenin area.
In addition, troops located two vehicles in Jenin that contained weapons and were intended to be used to carry out attacks and destroyed them, authorities said.
There were no injuries to Israeli forces.
The raid came amid a weeks-long Israeli operation in the West Bank dubbed Iron Wall. The effort, which began in late January, started in Jenin and has since expanded to refugee camps near Jenin, Tulkarem and Tubas where Israel says the PA has failed to crack down on terror.
PA FORCES SAID TO KILL SENIOR TERRORIST IN JENIN
According to Paleostinian media, PA forces stationed in Jenin killed Abdel Rahman Abu Muna, a senior member of the local Jenin Battalion group, Monday night.
Hamas ..a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",... condemned the liquidation Tuesday, calling it a "dangerous escalation" by the Ramallah-based PA.
Hebrew media cited a PA front man who claimed that Abu Muna reportedly opened fire on Paleostinian security forces, who returned fire and killed him.
In December, PA forces launched a military operation against the Jenin Battalion — a local militia linked to the Hamas and Paleostinian Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... terror groups. Ramallah has struggled to exert control over the northern West Bank, particularly in refugee camps in and around Jenin, Nablus and Tulkarem.

[GEO.TV] An Israeli air strike hit Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... City, with the civil defence agency reporting four men killed and the military saying it had targeted "terrorists" posing a threat to troops.
Mahmud Bassal, front man for the Gaza Strip's civil defence agency, told AFP that the Israeli strike "on a group of citizens in the Netzarim area in south Gaza City" resulted in "four deaders including two brothers", all men in their 20s.
The Israeli military said that its air forces had struck "several murderous Moslems engaged in suspicious activity posing a threat to IDF troops".
Israel has carried out near-daily air strikes in Gaza since early March, often targeting what the military said were bandidosholy warriors planting bombs.
A fragile truce in its war with Hamas ..a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",... , in effect since January 19, has largely held despite the attacks and with no agreement yet on extending the ceasefire.

[Rudaw] The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on Tuesday reported "intensified attacks" with Syrian National Army (SNA) Death Eaters in northern Syria near the key Tishreen Dam and Qere Qozaq bridge.
"The Ottoman Turkish occupation and its mercenaries have intensified their brutal attacks on northern and eastern Syria, committing a massacre yesterday in the countryside of Sarrin, which resulted in casualties of three children," the SDF said in a statement.
The SDF has blamed The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...a NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. It's headquartered in Belgium. That sez it all.... member, but not the most reliable... and Ottoman Turkish-backed Death Eaters for a spate of attacks on Tishreen Dam and Qere Qozaq bridge since December, when a coalition of rebels led by the Islamist Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, formerly al-Nusra, before that it was called something else ...al-Qaeda's Syrian affiliate, from which sprang the Islamic State... (HTS) overthrew Bashir Pencilneck al-Assad The Scourge of Hama... ’s regime after taking Damascus.
The dam's strategic location is critical for Turkey and the SNA, as its capture could pave the way for an advance into other parts of northeast Syria (Rojava).
The attacks came after HTS leader and Syria’s interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa and SDF chief Mazloum Abdi put pen to paper on a landmark deal that would see the SDF integrated into the Syrian security apparatus.
Included in the agreement is a ceasefire across the country.
According to the SDF, Ottoman Turkish drones were also spotted in the skies above the symbolic Kurdish city of Kobane and Ain Issa.
On Monday, a suspected Ottoman Turkishdronezap on Sarrin town south of Kobane killed one child and injured two more people.
Rojava authorities have expressed grave concerns about attacks on the Tishreen Dam, warning that the constant attacks could lead to its collapse and a potential human catastrophe.
