The claim had been that Israeli soldiers along the Gaza Strip had faced three separate kidnapping attempts, all of which were rebuffed by IDF forces.

IDF Northern Command sources said Hezbollah has been targeting areas the military never formally entered, with Israel countering them through airstrikes, artillery, and combat engineering units.

The facilities, which were located in three different parts of the Strip, were utilized by Hamas to "store weapons, explosive devices, anti-tank missiles, and additional military equipment."

Southern Command officials are also not ruling out rocket fire toward Israel as an attempt by Hamas to demonstrate its strength.

Netanyahu stressed that the Gaza Strip will "no longer pose a threat to Israel," noting that the goal has "largely been achieved."

In recent months, Hamas’s security apparatuses have operated on several fronts in an attempt to confront the militias opposing the organization.

The position was located approximately 50 meters from the Yellow Line, 70 meters from Kamal Adwan Hospital, and 170 meters from a school, the IDF said.

Security source says IDF "is not underestimating the threat," but will need to "wait and see if this becomes a trend" • Military believes Hamas using Palestinian teenagers to launch kites into Israel
