JERUSALEM, February 4 (Xinhua) — An Israeli reservist officer was seriously wounded in a shootout in Gaza on Wednesday night, an Israeli army spokesman said. Palestinian health authorities said retaliatory shelling by Israeli tanks and airstrikes killed at least 10 people, including children.
Militants opened fire on Israeli troops during a clash in the northern Gaza Strip, near the so-called "Yellow Line" marking Israeli-controlled territory under the first phase of the current ceasefire, an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman said.
"An IDF reserve officer was seriously injured as a result of the shooting," the spokesman said, adding that the officer was taken to the hospital.
In response, armored units and drones struck the area, an IDF spokesman said, without specifying which armed group carried out the attack.
Palestinian sources reported gunfire, artillery shelling, and drone strikes in northern and southern Gaza. According to medical workers, three people, including a 12-year-old girl, were killed by artillery shelling on tents sheltering displaced persons south of Khan Younis in the southern part of the enclave. Other casualties were reported in Gaza City in the north.
A US-brokered ceasefire took effect on October 10, 2025, after two years of conflict between Hamas and Israel. Since then, both sides have accused each other of violating the ceasefire.
