The United States has reportedly given Israel approval to carry out “special operations” in the Gaza Strip, according to Israeli media outlets.

The Israeli Broadcasting Corporation (KAN) said late on Monday that the green light was discussed during a security meeting that lasted more than four hours. According to sources cited by the broadcaster, the meeting reviewed developments across four fronts: Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Iran.

The report said the Israeli cabinet is scheduled to convene next Thursday to discuss the Gaza, Lebanon and Iran files, according to Channel 14.

A senior Israeli official was quoted as saying after the meeting between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump that reconstruction in the Gaza Strip would not begin unless Hamas relinquishes its weapons.

The official said there would be no move to a second phase of any agreement without disarmament, adding that no Turkish forces would be allowed to enter Gaza.

The reports come amid continued Israeli deliberations over military and political options in Gaza and growing regional tensions involving neighbouring fronts.

Israeli settlers vandalised several gravestones at an Islamic cemetery in occupied Jerusalem in the early hours of Monday, according to local sources.

Residents said a group of settlers stormed an Islamic cemetery near the Old City of Jerusalem, damaging and defacing a number of graves before leaving the area.

The attack comes amid repeated incidents targeting the Bab al-Rahma cemetery, located east of the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound. Settlers vandalised gravestones at the cemetery twice earlier in 2025, according to local documentation.

Bab al-Rahma is one of the oldest and most significant Islamic cemeteries in Jerusalem, dating back around 1,400 years. It contains the graves of companions of the Prophet Muhammad, as well as fighters who took part in the historic conquest of Jerusalem during the eras of Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab and later under Saladin.

Palestinian residents and religious authorities say the cemetery has been subjected to sustained Israeli violations, including attempts to seize parts of it. They warn that such actions aim to alter the cultural and religious character of the area and facilitate greater Israeli control over the Old City of Jerusalem and its surroundings, particularly the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex.

Israeli forces killed an 11-year-old Palestinian girl in the northern Gaza Strip on Thursday, in a new violation of last year’s ceasefire agreement, Anadolu reports.

The source said the girl was fatally shot in the Jabalia refugee camp, an area the Israeli military had withdrawn from under the ceasefire that took effect in October last year.

Witnesses said Israeli forces positioned east of the camp fired heavily toward the area, striking the girl directly and killing her.

The Israeli army has killed more than 71,400 people, mostly women and children, and injured over 171,000 others in a brutal offensive since October 2023 that has left the enclave in ruins.

Despite the ceasefire, the Israeli army has continued its attacks, killing 424 Palestinians and wounding 1,189 others, according to the Health Ministry.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has told ministers in his government that he has received a green light from US President Donald Trump to launch an attack in Lebanon, according to Israel’s public broadcaster Kan on Wednesday evening.

The report comes a few days after Kan said, citing two informed sources, that Israel is considering a military operation in Lebanon aimed at eliminating what it described as the “Hezbollah threat”.

Kan said Netanyahu discussed expanding Israeli attacks in Lebanon with President Trump during a meeting in Florida in late December.

According to the broadcaster, Hezbollah has been able to rebuild some of its capabilities during the ceasefire. Israeli officials also claimed that the Lebanese government is unable to confront the group.

The sources added that the Trump administration does not rule out the possibility of Israel carrying out an operation against Hezbollah. However, they said Netanyahu was asked to delay any decision to allow further dialogue with the Lebanese government.

This assessment comes amid ongoing tension along the Lebanese–Israeli border and growing debate in Israel about the failure of political and diplomatic efforts to force Hezbollah to disarm, raising the prospect of a new phase of careful military calculations.

Two Palestinians were killed and three others injured in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza City on Wednesday, a medical source said, marking a new violation of last year’s ceasefire deal.

The strike targeted a house in al-Tuffah neighborhood in eastern Gaza City, an area from which the Israeli army had withdrawn under the ceasefire deal, the source told Anadolu.

The Israeli army claimed that its forces came under fire in northern Gaza.

The Israeli army has killed more than 71,400 people, mostly women and children, and injured over 171,000 others in a brutal offensive since October 2023 that has left the enclave in ruins.

Despite the ceasefire that took effect on Oct. 10, 2025, the Israeli army continued its attacks, killing 424 Palestinians and wounding 1,189 others, according to the Health Ministry.
