The day's dominant story was the Israeli airstrike in Jenin that killed three Palestinians, including Qassam commander Qais al-Baytawi. The strike, which targeted a vehicle and a home, was reported across outlets, with emphasis on the blocking of ambulance crews. This followed morning reports of three family members killed by a drone strike in Khan Yunis, continuing ceasefire violations in Gaza. In the West Bank, settler violence persisted, with a 20-day siege on Qusra families and the uprooting of 450 guava trees. Political developments included Ben-Gvir's rejection of a Netanyahu-Smotrich alliance and warnings from the Israeli army chief about settler violence. The WHO highlighted Gaza's medical crisis, with thousands awaiting evacuation.
