On Sunday, the Israeli government issued a warning to Hamas, stating that it would increase military operations in Gaza if the launching of kites, balloons, and drones toward Israel persists. The warning follows a recent rise in these aerial devices being sent across the border from the Gaza Strip.

Hamas responded to the threat by accusing Israel of fabricating a pretext to justify intensified air assaults and broad evacuations in the region. The group characterized the Israeli focus on the kites as a strategic justification for escalating military action.
