The strike, which occurred early this morning, hit a densely populated neighborhood, causing significant damage to the building and surrounding infrastructure.

This shift in focus was highlighted earlier this week by Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, who addressed the IDF’s 9th Brigade. Gallant noted that the strategic "center of gravity" is now shifting towards the northern border, with Israeli forces concluding operations in the south and preparing for further actions in the north. He emphasized that the IDF's focus would be on restoring security and enabling residents to return to their homes, underscoring the seriousness of the northern front's military importance.
