Meanwhile, Israeli military vehicles opened fire with machine guns and deployed illumination flares northwest of the al-Nuseirat refugee camp and north of the al-Bureij camp in central Gaza.

Local media outlets also reported that Israeli invasion forces demolished residential buildings east of Khan Younis, causing thick smoke to rise from the area. Concurrently, warplanes bombed the outskirts of Qizan al-Najjar neighborhood, south of Khan Younis.
