Headline: Israeli Forces Kill Four Militants Near Rafah Tunnels, Ceasefire Remains Fragile

Jerusalem – November 30, 2025 – The Israeli military announced on Sunday that its forces killed four Palestinian militants emerging from tunnels near Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. According to the IDF, the operation was conducted in the eastern Rafah area, with air support eliminating the militants who were exiting underground infrastructure.

The incident comes as dozens of Hamas fighters remain holed up in tunnels beneath areas controlled by the Israeli army. Negotiations concerning the fate of these fighters were reportedly underway as of late November, with Hamas publicly calling on mediating countries to pressure Israel to allow safe passage on November 26th.

A U.S.-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, mediated by Egypt, Turkey and Qatar, went into effect on October 10th. It stipulated that the Israeli army would withdraw behind the “Yellow Line” within Gaza. However, the Hamas militants are located in tunnels on the Israeli-controlled side of this line.

A Hamas member in Gaza estimates their number to be between 60 and 80.

While the ceasefire officially holds, both Israel and Hamas have accused each other of violations. The Gaza Strip remains in a severe humanitarian crisis. The conflict, triggered by Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack on Israel (which resulted in 1,221 deaths), has seen a devastating retaliatory assault by Israel, resulting in at least 70,100 Palestinian deaths. The Gazan Health Ministry has reported that 354 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire since the ceasefire began.
