The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced the elimination of five militants belonging to Hamas and Islamic Jihad in southern Gaza. The operations took place early in the week in the Khan Yunis and Rafah areas.

On Sunday, October 11, Israeli forces struck Khan Yunis, killing three members of the Islamic Jihad's military wing who were reportedly meeting to plan attacks against Israeli soldiers. The IDF identified these individuals as engineer operator Muhammad Abu Hajjaj, deputy squad commander Yousef Abu Razak, and missile weapons specialist Abdelhamid Jadallah.

A subsequent strike in southern Gaza that same day eliminated Salah al-Din Iyad Abd al-Hamid and Izz al-Din Iyad Diab Barhum. According to the military, these two were part of the Nukhba special unit within Hamas's Rafah brigade. The IDF stated that shortly before their elimination, these militants were preparing terrorist attacks against Israeli soldiers and civilians, and were also rebuilding their organizations' military capabilities, which violates the ceasefire terms.

The IDF emphasized that measures were taken to minimize civilian risk before the strikes, including the use of precision munitions and aerial surveillance of the operational areas.
