Israeli military operations continued in Gaza despite an ongoing ceasefire, as residents faced worsening weather conditions. On Friday, marking the 84th day of the truce, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz reportedly instructed the army to prepare for intensified strikes. The military confirmed no orders had been received to reopen the Rafah crossing with Egypt. According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, one person was killed and another injured in the past 24 hours, bringing the ceasefire-period toll to 416 dead and 1,153 wounded, with 683 bodies recovered. Over two years of conflict have left 71,271 Palestinians dead and 171,233 injured.

The Palestinian Meteorological Department reported cold and unstable weather across Gaza, warning of heavy rainfall and possible flooding. A child died from severe cold in the Nuseirat refugee camp, raising the death toll from cold-related causes to 18 since December. Separately, a fire in a Gaza refugee camp killed three people, including a woman and a child, and injured five others.

In the occupied West Bank, Israeli forces and settlers jointly attacked Palestinian communities, damaging property and farmland, and arrested over 100 people in one week.
