Israel razes over 2,500 Gaza buildings after ceasefire; dozens demolished beyond the Yellow Line: report

The Yellow Line now functions as a hard internal boundary that effectively splits Gaza.

By Shmuli Volkin, Jewish Breaking News

A New York Times report says the IDF has demolished more than 2,500 structures in Gaza since the ceasefire began, largely inside the Israeli-controlled sector east of the so-called Yellow Line.

Israel argues these are not “random razings” but combat engineering: collapsing tunnel routes, clearing booby-trapped buildings, and removing kill-zone cover Hamas terrorists have repeatedly used to stage ambushes and plant IEDs.

The bigger story is the map.

The Yellow Line now functions as a hard internal boundary that effectively splits Gaza, with the IDF holding large swaths while Hamas still rules what’s left—creating constant friction along a line that was supposed to be temporary.

The NYT report also cites demolition activity and ground changes that have sparked new accusations: Palestinians and aid groups say markers and positions have shifted west in places, while Israel denies moving the line.
