A Hamas explosive device detonated in northern Gaza near the Yellow Line in the early hours of Monday morning, according to the IDF.

Gazans also fired at the same area at the time of the explosion. There were no casualties, the military confirmed.

Following the explosion, Israeli forces attacked in the area of the Yellow Line.

This event, the IDF claimed, constituted a ceasefire violation on the part of Hamas, something that the military warned soldiers they should be prepared for, according to a Sunday Channel 12 report.

Channel 12 also reported that IDF soldiers were instructed to attack a group of six Hamas operatives who crossed the Yellow Line on Friday in order to steal Israeli military equipment. They were evidently not hit and retreated.

IDF strikes Hamas terror cell, resuming preemptive strikes despite Trump's Gaza deal

The air force on Thursday attacked a Gazan terror cell in Khan Yunis, the second such attack in two days. These attacks had ceased since the US-Hamas deal in late July.

IDF sources told The Jerusalem Post that the cell, while not very senior, was nonetheless in the process of planning and preparing an operation against the military.

 According to the sources, the IDF has halted its attacks on Hamas leadership and on the terror group’s members involved in the October 7 invasion ever since the US-Hamas deal. However, they said that the IDF is still carrying out strikes against operatives whom it knows are preparing attacks.
