On Monday, Israel's military announced that it had conducted over 200 airstrikes across the Gaza Strip in the last three days, resulting in the death of a member of the Islamic Jihad movement.
According to the military, the airstrikes focused on militant infrastructure, including cells, rocket launch and sniper positions, along with weapons depots and command centers.
The deceased fighter was identified as Ahmad Mansour, who was said to have participated in the surprise attack on Israel led by Hamas on October 7, 2023, and subsequently directed rocket fire during the ongoing conflict.
Israeli troops dismantled “terrorist infrastructure” in the Shabura and Tel al-Sultan neighborhoods of Rafah, where they discovered a cache of grenades, ammunition, and military equipment.
Along the newly constructed Morag Corridor, which connects Rafah with Khan Younis and the rest of Gaza, troops located weapons, destroyed Hamas infrastructure, and killed multiple militants, according to the military.
In northern Gaza, soldiers conducted an airstrike on a structure identified as containing underground infrastructure and spotted several militants. The army also reported dismantling Hamas sniper posts that posed a threat to its ground forces.
On the same day, Palestinian news agency WAFA reported that at least eight people were killed and dozens wounded in Israeli strikes.
Gaza's civil defense agency also accused the Israeli military of committing “summary executions” in connection with the deaths of 15 rescue workers in late March, contesting the conclusions of an army internal investigation.
“The video filmed by one of the paramedics proves that the Israeli occupation's narrative is false and demonstrates that it carried out summary executions,” said Mohammed Al-Mughair, a civil defense official, asserting that Israel was attempting to “circumvent” its responsibilities under international law.
The rescue workers were killed while responding to emergency calls near Rafah on March 23, shortly after Israel resumed its offensive in the Hamas-governed territory.
Among the deceased were eight employees of the Red Crescent, six members of Gaza's civil defense rescue agency, and one worker from UNRWA, according to reports from the UN humanitarian agency OCHA and local rescuers.
The incident drew international outcry, including concerns regarding potential war crimes raised by UN human rights commissioner Volker Turk.
An Israeli military investigation released on Sunday found “no evidence to support claims of execution” or “indiscriminate fire” by its forces, although it acknowledged operational failures and dismissed a field commander. It revised its earlier count of those killed from nine militants to six.
The Palestine Red Crescent Society condemned the investigation report as “full of lies.”
“It is invalid and unacceptable, as it justifies the killing and shifts responsibility to a personal error in the field command when the truth is quite different,” said Nebal Farsakh, spokesperson for the Red Crescent.
