According to Israel’s military, the Hamas terrorist organization violated the ceasefire agreement. Taking to social media Tuesday, Israel released a statement which announced three explosive devices detonated near IDF positions in two different locations in northern Gaza, where the heaviest fighting has taken place, the IDF said, as reported by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

“In one of the locations, terrorists also opened fire at the troops, who responded with fire. A number of soldiers were lightly injured during the incidents. IDF troops were located in positions as per the framework of the operational pause,” the statement continued.

 Israel and Hamas agreed to pause fighting for two more days beyond the initial ceasefire arrangement on Monday as Qatar was mediating for further hostage releases in exchange for Palestinians detained in Israel and humanitarian aid deliveries.

However, it was in the last hour of the agreement that Hamas terrorists fired at Israel Defense Forces (IDF) troops abiding by the operational lines set by the ceasefire arrangement, the IDF claimed.

Hamas accused the IDF of firing the first shots to break the pause in fighting, the Times of Israel reported.

A spokesperson for Hamas’ military wing said fighters were responding to a “clear violation” of the ceasefire in northern Gaza but provided no further details, the Times reported.

Hamas is “committed to the truce as long as the enemy adheres to it, and we call on the mediators to pressure the occupation to adhere to all the terms of the truce on the ground and in the air,” the group said, according to the Times.
