[83589] IDF expands control in the Tuffah neighborhood in Gaza: Pushing residents westward

IDF tightens control in eastern Gaza

During the night (15.06.2026), Gazan sources reported significant operational activity by IDF forces in the Tuffah neighborhood in eastern Gaza City. According to Abu Ali Express, known for an editorial line supporting IDF operations and emphasizing the fight against Hamas, IDF forces moved the "yellow line" westward in the area of the As-Sanafor traffic light.

According to Abu Ali Express, the move was accompanied by "gunfire and tank fire," which forced many Gazans who resided in the area to relocate their homes and tents westward, as the territory where they were staying became part of the yellow line under Israeli military control.

These reports were also confirmed by 301 News Arab World, a channel that presents a critical stance toward Israel's conduct of the war. In a post published this morning, the activity was described as "intensive IDF activity in the sector," with an emphasis on the fact that the line is being moved westward "a little more every day" according to 301 News Arab World.
