The Israeli military is preparing for the potential resumption of large-scale combat in the Gaza Strip, amid ceasefires on the Iranian and Lebanese fronts and assessments indicating that Hamas has exploited the situation to rebuild its military capabilities.

Israeli military sources told Haaretz that the so-called commander of the Southern Command claimed no international body has been able to disarm Hamas. Israel will not limit its operations to the yellow-line areas of Gaza.

The army believes that if fighting resumes, it will need to enter areas it has previously avoided.

A new video released on Tuesday by the Israeli Information Centre for Human Rights B’Tselem shows an Israeli soldier shooting a Palestinian baby, aged seven months, while he was in his mother’s arms in Hebron, southern West Bank, four days ago.

B’Tselem said it obtained footage showing the shooting of the Abu Hikal family, which killed baby Sam Abu Hikal and injured his parents.

The video clearly shows that the Israeli soldier fired at the car as it was slowing down to stop, while still at a distance from the soldiers and posing no threat.

It also shows the father holding the child and trying to stop the bleeding from his head, while the mother, who was also hit while carrying her son, sits on the road next to the family car.

B’Tselem added that the incident happened on Friday, 5th June, as the Palestinian family was returning from a family visit in the Tel Rumeida neighbourhood of Hebron.

The shooting occurred after the father, driving the car, saw soldiers on the road and slowed down.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard said on Wednesday it had expanded its response to US strikes on sites in southern Iran, claiming it had targeted the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain with drones, Jordan’s Azraq Air Base with long-range missiles, and Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait.

Iranian state media quoted the Revolutionary Guard as saying the operation was carried out in response to what it described as “US aggression”, warning that Tehran would respond “more forcefully” if American attacks continued.

The Revolutionary Guard said the US strikes caused damage to a communications tower and two water tanks in the southern Iranian coastal city of Sirik, according to Reuters.

Separately, Iranian media quoted Iran’s unified armed forces command as saying that several US bases in the region had been targeted in response to the attacks in southern Iran.

Iranian media also reported that the Revolutionary Guard had struck four locations at Jordan’s Azraq Air Base with long-range missiles, claiming the targets included shelters housing F-35 fighter jets and a command-and-control centre.

The US did not intercept any Iranian ballistic missiles launched toward Israel overnight, contrary to an earlier claim by an Israeli military official, according to a CNN report citing a US official.

CNN reported that the US military did not intercept any of the Iranian missiles fired during the latest exchange, marking a departure from previous rounds of conflict when US forces used missile defense systems to help defend Israel against Iranian attacks.

The official also told CNN that the Israeli military coordinated closely with the US military during the operation.

Israeli Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir reportedly held two conversations with US Central Command (CENTCOM) commander Adm. Brad Cooper, according to the report.

Tensions escalated Sunday after Israel bombed the Lebanese capital Beirut despite an ongoing ceasefire. Iran subsequently launched missiles toward northern Israel, and Israel later carried out several waves of airstrikes against Iran.

The region has remained on edge since the US and Israel launched airstrikes on Iran in late February, triggering Iranian retaliation against Israel and other regional countries hosting US assets.

A temporary ceasefire was reached on April 8, but negotiations later stalled amid disputes over its implementation and subsequent regional developments.

Israeli prime minister vows ‘much harsher’ response to any future Iranian attack

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday vowed a “much harsher” response to any future attack by Iran following a brief escalation between the two sides, Anadolu reports.

In a video message, Netanyahu claimed Iran and Hezbollah had sought to impose what he described as a “new and unacceptable equation” through attacks against Israel.

“They thought they could fire at Israel from Lebanon and Iran and that we would not act. That did not happen, and it will not happen as long as I am in office,” he said.

Netanyahu claimed that Israel had Iran and Hezbollah under pressure and warned that any new attack would be met with a “much harsher” response.

His remarks came after Israeli media reported that Netanyahu had agreed, at the request of US President Donald Trump, to halt attacks on Iran while continuing military operations in Lebanon.

Tensions escalated on Sunday when Israel carried out an airstrike on the Lebanese capital Beirut, claiming it targeted a Hezbollah command and planning center.

Iranian officials condemned the strike and launched three waves of missile attacks that triggered air raid sirens across northern Israel.

The Israeli military said it subsequently carried out strikes in western and central Iran, while Tehran responded with additional missile launches.

Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters later announced a halt to military operations against Israel, while warning that any continuation of Israeli attacks on Lebanon would prompt a stronger response.
