ISRAELI OCCUPIED GAZA, 01 Dec. - (ANA) - Israel has launched a wave of new strikes on Gaza, with heavy gunfire reported in the southern city of Khan Younis, while tents sheltering displaced civilians were also targeted, according to new reports on Monday.

 

The incidents have heightened concerns over continued violations of the ceasefire.

 

According to The New Arab’s Arabic-language sister site al-Araby al-Jadeed, areas in the southeast of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip were subjected to intense gunfire from Israeli military vehicles. The outlet also reported artillery shelling and further gunfire east of the city.

 

Israeli artillery fire and gunfire from military helicopters were directed towards the eastern parts of Khan Younis, inside the so-called Yellow Line.

 

These latest attacks follow reports that the head of Israel’s domestic intelligence agency, Shin Bet, David Zini, held a round of talks in Cairo on Sunday with his Egyptian counterpart, Major General Hassan Mahmoud Rashad, during which they discussed the second phase of the ceasefire agreement.

 

Meanwhile, violence continues to escalate in the occupied West Bank with new raids in the Tubas area.   - (ANA) -
