Gaza official attack foiled by Israel
Two Palestinians were killed and others injured in an Israeli airstrike on the Gaza Strip, which targeted a vehicle in Khan Younis. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yisrael Katz confirmed that the operation aimed to eliminate a prominent Hamas financial official named Muhammad Abu Alwan, responsible for managing the movement's financial resources, as part of Israel’s ongoing campaign to pursue Hamas leaders and members and dismantle their funding sources. Israel also announced the foiling of a plan by a Palestinian cell from Nablus, which was plotting to assassinate Israeli Defense Minister Itamar Ben Gvir using a booby-trapped drone. This comes amid ongoing military and humanitarian escalation in the strip, as efforts to implement the ceasefire agreement reached last year remain stalled. Calls within Israel for more stringent security policies are intensifying, with Ben Gvir announcing plans to take over the Defense Ministry, revise rules of engagement, accelerate efforts to disarm the Palestinian Authority, and promote the migration of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
