Israel threatens intensified killings, displacement in Gaza over kite launches

Israel has threatened to intensify military operations against Hamas leadership and displace more Palestinians from parts of Gaza if launches of kites, balloons, and drones toward southern Israel persist. Issued jointly by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office and Defense Minister Israel Katz following a security assessment, the warning comes despite an October 2025 ceasefire. While Israeli media reported that ten kites have crossed the border since Friday—including one intercepted Sunday, marking the first such interception since 2018—the military confirmed the devices carried no explosives and posed no public danger. The ongoing conflict, triggered in October 2023, has resulted in over 73,420 deaths in Gaza, with more than 1,286 additional fatalities reported since the truce took effect. Credit : CGTN
