The Israeli military announced the killing of Muhammad Salah, a weapons expert working at Hamas headquarters, in an air raid in the Gaza Strip. Salah was responsible for overseeing several terrorist teams involved in weapon development. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that the most intense phase of the war in Rafah was coming to an end and that some forces may be moved to the north for defensive purposes and to allow displaced people to return home.
Netanyahu also emphasized that Israel is prepared to face multiple fronts if necessary. In response to threats from Hezbollah, Netanyahu expressed a willingness to accept a diplomatic solution but only on Israel’s terms, which would include removing Hezbollah from the border. Anti-government protesters in Israel have been demanding Netanyahu’s resignation and calling for a general strike to pressure the government.
