An armed group in Gaza led by Hossam al-Astal claims to have thwarted a Hamas attack in Khan Younis with the help of Israeli military assistance. The group intervened to protect the al-Majaida family from a Hamas attack, resulting in the death of 11 Hamas operatives and six seriously wounded. This marks the first known case of a Hamas attack being openly thwarted by a Palestinian armed group.
