Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor argued that the violence in Gaza continues “quieter, slower, but just as deliberate,” adding that the enclave is being systematically denied the chance to recover. "An ongoing genocide does not end when it becomes less visible. It ends when the killing stops, when accountability begins, and when people are allowed to live.”

Israeli forces raided areas north of Tulkarm and several other governorates, searched homes, and damaged their contents. Military bulldozers continued land-clearing operations in Al-Jabariyat, overlooking the Jenin refugee camp, while troops destroyed murals bearing images of Palestinians killed in the conflict south of Al-Khalil (Hebron).
Settlers released cattle onto farmland east of Nablus, carried out excavation work in Al-Khalil to expand a settlement outpost, assaulted a security guard in Nablus, rebuilt the Beit Einot Hill outpost in Al-Khalil days after its demolition, and attempted to burn vehicles in Jerusalem before residents intervened.
