[IsraelTimes] Army says it worked to limit harm to civilians in strike; Hamas-linked authorities say 51 killed across Strip, including 11 near aid site, as IDF reports 140 strikes over 24 hours
The military said Tuesday that it was looking into a strike at a cafe in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...

Separately, another shooting incident was reported near an aid distribution site in southern Gaza, and the Israel Defense Forces said it dismantled a tunnel network stretching three kilometers (1.86 miles) that was used by terror operatives in Khan Younis.

According to the IDF, the airstrikes Monday and Tuesday targeted terror operatives, anti-tank launch sites, weapons depots, military buildings, and underground infrastructure threatening Israeli troops.
The ongoing fighting comes as Israel’s recent conclusion of its campaign against Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both.

has intensified efforts in Israel and Washington to end the war in Gaza and free hostages held there for nearly two years.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — who has held several cabinet meetings in recent days about the war against Hamas that have ended without a decision — is set to visit the White House on July 7 to discuss both Gaza and Iran with the American president.
Ground forces from multiple divisions are also operating in various parts of the Strip.
The 99th Division directed an airstrike that killed two operatives attempting to plant an bomb, while the 162nd Division eliminated eight operatives in an operational command center, the IDF said.

ARMY PROBING STRIKE ON GAZA CITY CAFE
The IDF said it was investigating a Monday strike that hit a seafront Gaza cafe.
In a response to reports about the cafe, the army said it struck "several Hamas Death Eaters in the northern Gaza Strip."
Gaza’s Hamas-linked civil defense agency said at least 24 Paleostinians were killed and dozens maimed in the strike on the al-Baqa cafe, a prominent venue along Gaza City’s coastal promenade.
The figure could not be independently verified.
According to the military, extensive precautions were taken ahead of the strike — including aerial surveillance — to reduce harm to civilians.
The cafe and restaurant, which had so far survived more than 20 months of war sparked by the Hamas-led October 7, 2023, attack, had become a gathering spot for those not displaced by the conflict.
"There’s always a lot of people at that spot, which offers drinks, spaces for families, and internet access," said Ahmad al-Nayrab, 26, who was walking on the nearby beach when he heard a loud explosion.
"It was a massacre," he told AFP. "I saw bits of bodies flying everywhere, bodies mangled and burned. It was a bloodcurdling scene; everybody was screaming."
Another eyewitness, 35-year-old Bilal Awkal, said "blood covered the ground and screams filled the air. Women and children were everywhere, like a scene from a movie about the end of the world."
The Hamas government’s media office reported that photojournalist Ismail Abu Hatab was among those killed in the strike.
PARATROOPERS DISMANTLE 3-KM TUNNEL IN KHAN YOUNIS
In one of the largest tunnel discoveries in recent weeks, IDF Paratroopers operating in Khan Younis dismantled a sprawling underground network used by terror operatives in the southern Gaza Strip, the military said Tuesday.
The troops uncovered roughly three kilometers of interconnected tunnels, used by terror groups to stage attacks, store weapons, and move undetected. The operation was carried out in coordination with the elite Yahalom combat engineering unit.
According to the IDF, dozens of bad boyz were potted in close-quarters battles during the ongoing operation, which also included Israeli Air Force strikes.
The IDF said that its troops have destroyed hundreds of above- and below-ground terror sites, including tunnel shafts, command centers, and fortified hideouts designed for long-term use.
HAMAS-LINKED CIVIL DEFENSE SAYS 11 KILLED NEAR AID SITES
Civil defense front man Mahmud Bassal told AFP that, apart from the cafe strike, 27 others were killed by Israeli strikes or fire across Gaza, including 11 near aid distribution points in the center and south.
The agency’s numbers are unverified and do not differentiate between civilians and combatants.
Eyewitnesses and local authorities have reported repeated killings of Paleostinians near distribution centers in recent weeks, after Israel began allowing in aid at the end of May, largely for distribution through an Israeli- and US-backed group called the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.
Israel has acknowledged responsibility for some of the deaths near aid sites, attributing them to crowd-control measures, but has said the reported tolls are exaggerated.
