Summary

An Israeli airstrike killed Izz al-Din al-Beik, the head of Hamas' armed wing in the northern Gaza Strip, according to Israeli and Palestinian officials. The strike hit an apartment building in Gaza City's Nasr neighbourhood. At least one other person died from wounds sustained in the attack. Israel claims al-Beik was involved in planning attacks and recruiting militants; Hamas confirmed his death but denies Israel's allegations about ceasefire violations and accuses Israel of undermining the agreement. Israeli officials including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Israel Katz confirmed the operation. The Israeli military reports killing at least 20 Hamas figures this month. Since the ceasefire took effect, at least 1,400 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza according to reports, while the Israeli military reports four Israeli soldiers killed.
