The Israeli military conducted drone strikes in Tubas, northern West Bank, resulting in the deaths of five armed Palestinians, including the son of a prominent militant. The IDF stated the airstrikes targeted individuals posing a threat to Israeli troops during a raid, amid a broader military operation in the region that has seen over 30 Palestinian fatalities since late August. Concurrently, airstrikes were reported in Deir al-Balah, where an Israeli helicopter attack killed five individuals in a designated humanitarian area, which the IDF claimed was being used by terrorists. These operations coincide with heightened tensions and fears of an escalation in violence stemming from the ongoing conflict in Gaza. The situation remains fluid, with significant casualties on both sides, including injuries to Palestinian civilians. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu emphasized the military's intent to dismantle militant networks and prevent further attacks.
