LIVE Gaza | Breaking news, monitoring of the situation after the truce with Israel

El Periódico

At least four Israeli soldiers were wounded, one of them in serious condition, in fighting that broke out in Rafah, at the southern end of the Gaza Strip, this Wednesday, the Israeli Army reported. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a statement wished “a speedy recovery to the heroic soldiers.” “Our policy is clear: Israel will not tolerate harm to soldiers and will respond accordingly,” he warned. The situation in Rafah is delicate since dozens of Hamas militiamen continue to be entrenched, although Israel raises this number to hundreds, in tunnels, which is triggering this type of incidents. Until now, the Netanyahu Government has maintained that its position regarding these militiamen trapped in the border city with Egypt is to “capture or eliminate them,” unless they surrender and hand over their weapons. Hamas, however, has been warning that its fighters are not going to surrender and has asked mediators for a solution so that these militants can move to the areas outside the yellow line, the point to which Israeli troops have retreated.
