In the early hours of Monday, the Israeli army advanced northeast of Al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza, initiating heavy gunfire and repositioning the boundary known as the "Yellow Line" that marks its control perimeter.

Eyewitnesses reported to a news outlet that two Israeli tanks and a bulldozer moved toward Salah al-Din Street, opposite the northern area of Al-Bureij camp in central Gaza.

Simultaneously, Israeli drones and border watchtowers opened intense machine-gun fire targeting the outskirts of Al-Bureij camp and the Da'wa College area north of Al-Nuseirat camp in central Gaza.

The Israeli forces began placing concrete blocks to redraw the limits of the "Yellow Line," which separates areas under Israeli military control from those inhabited by Palestinians within Gaza.

This marks the fifth time in about two weeks that the Israeli army has shifted the "Yellow Line" boundary, following statements by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about expanding military control over Gaza.

Additionally, the Israeli army conducted large-scale demolitions east of Khan Yunis city in southern Gaza and in areas east of Gaza city, resulting in widely audible explosions.
