After a salvo of rockets from Gaza targetted the "Rehovot" settlement killing an Israeli settler and injuring others, Israeli media reported that the PIJ has restored its confidence. 

"The missile that was fired in the direction of Rehovot was equipped with high-precision technology, and the Israeli air defenses could not shoot it down bypassing the David's Sling and Iron Dome systems," Israeli media reported. 

"The Iron Dome provides good protection, but it is not impenetrable," the commander of the so-called Home Front was quoted saying by Israeli media. 

Israeli media assessed that the PIJ has fired around 600 rockets toward "Israel" since the onset of the operation. 

Almong Boker, the military correspondent for the Israeli Channel 13, described the scenes of destruction in "Rehovot" as that which "Israel feared". 

Additionally, Israeli media noted that the ceasefire talks hosted in Egypt have been frozen. "Egyptian mediation has not yet succeeded in achieving a breakthrough that would allow the conclusion of a ceasefire agreement."

Furthermore, it was reported that many from the Israeli opposition have been critical of the government's operation: describing it as futile and calling for its cessation. Yair Lapid, a leading opposition politician, was quoted saying  "The time has come to stop the operation".

The IOF launched at Tuesday dawn heinous aggression against the Gaza Strip, targeting civilian homes and several locations, and murdering 15 Palestinians, including five women and four children.

The Israeli occupation had launched an aggression against Gaza and targeted several areas in the Strip, including the homes of PIJ leaders, which resulted in the deaths of 13 Palestinians, including three Al-Quds Brigades leaders.

On Wednesday, Al Mayadeen correspondent in the Gaza Strip reported that a Palestinian was martyred and another was seriously injured in an Israeli occupation shelling that targeted east of Khan Yunis, in the southern Strip.

Early on  Thursday morning, Three Palestinians were martyred in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a residential building in Hamad City, northwest of Khan Yunis, the Gaza Strip, an Al Mayadeen correspondent reported.

It is noteworthy that on Wednesday, sources in the Palestinian Resistance factions' joint operations room told Al Mayadeen that "the occupation pressed through various mediators to push for a ceasefire," noting that "the Resistance remained steadfast in its demand for a clear [Israeli] commitment to stopping the assassinations policy."

The sources also expressed the Resistance's "readiness to fight for the longest time period yet and to expand the ring of fire if necessary."
