*🇮🇱-IDF Strikes Western Gaza City After Threats To Forces* The IDF carried out multiple strikes in western Gaza City this morning after what it described as threats against Israeli forces. A military source said there were no Israeli casualties and no troops trapped. The IDF said it acted to end an immediate threat, and that the incident is nearing its conclusion. Defense Minister Israel Katz later said Israel captured a senior Hamas terrorist during the operation. Palestinian reports described heavy drone activity and at least 10 explosions in the al-Katiba area near the American Hospital, plus exchanges of fire on the ground. Two vehicles were reportedly hit. Gaza health officials said several people were killed, including children. Casualty figures differ by source. Arab media also reported that the strikes followed an exposed attempt to detain a Hamas official, possibly involving local militias. The IDF has not publicly confirmed those details.
