In a chilling echo of the October 7 attacks, 18 Hamas fighters launched a brazen assault on an IDF military base, attempting to breach defenses and abduct Israeli soldiers. The fighters reportedly tried to replicate the shock tactics of last year’s attack, triggering a fierce firefight with Israeli forces.
According to early reports, the attackers were heavily armed and sought to seize hostages, but the plot was foiled after a rapid Israeli military response. The IDF confirmed clashes at the base, underscoring ongoing security threats and the high stakes of the conflict.

Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz has approved Operation Gideon’s Chariots II, a major IDF plan to capture Gaza City. Backed by Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir, the operation will call up 60,000 reservists to reinforce troops already deployed. Civilians will be evacuated south before the offensive, aimed at isolating Hamas. Families of hostages expressed concern over risks, while Egypt’s ceasefire proposal was rejected for excluding all hostages. Katz declared Israel is at a decisive stage and vowed no hostage will be left behind.
