Local sources reported that resistance fighters exchanged fire with undercover Israeli forces invading the area, and also fired mortars at Israeli military vehicles stationed at the border area.

The al-Qassam brigades, the armed wing of Hamas movement, stated that its fighters clashed with the invading forces and fired shells at them.

Furthermore, Israeli soldiers fired several shells towards a number of homes and lands east of Gaza city; damage was reported, but no injuries.
