The Israeli military said on Oct. 19 that Hamas violated the cease-fire by firing an anti-tank missile at Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) operating in the Rafah area.
The IDF said it responded with strikes in the area to eliminate the threat and dismantle the tunnel shafts and military structures the Hamas terrorist group was using.
