Morning update

Good morning Middle East Eye readers.

A fragile ceasefire meant to halt Israel’s two-year genocidal war on Gaza remains under strain. Palestinians say they are being further squeezed as Israeli forces push past the ceasefire line in Gaza, with troops and tanks advancing roughly 300 metres beyond the “yellow line”. 

The truce has been repeatedly violated, with Israel launching new operations and continuing strikes in Gaza, while settlers intensify efforts to displace Palestinians across the occupied West Bank.

Here are the latest updates:

• Israeli tanks opened fire towards Palestinian homes near the Sanafour Junction in the Al-Tuffah neighbourhood, east of Gaza City.

• Israeli warplanes launched a series of airstrikes east of Khan Younis city in the southern Gaza Strip.

• The Israeli army killed a Palestinian man for crossing the yellow line in the northern Gaza Strip, saying he "posed a direct threat" to them.

• A UN report has found that the Israeli attack on Gaza wiped out 69 years of human development, representing the worst economic collapse ever recorded.

• Israeli forces have set up a vehicle checkpoint during a raid on the town of Qaffin, north of Tulkarm in the West Bank, where they also raided the town of Halhul, north of Hebron, and the city of Tubas.
