The Jordanian army announced on October 22nd, 2025, that it will send a representative to join an international team responsible for implementing a cease-fire agreement in Gaza, facilitating aid delivery, and overseeing reconstruction efforts. This representative will operate from the "Civil and Military Coordination Center" in Kiryat Gat to coordinate joint efforts for aid introduction into the Strip. This announcement comes as conflicting claims emerge regarding Hamas's alleged use of UN-affiliated infrastructure. One source claims Israeli forces searched for bodies of Israelis in a tunnel under a UN Relief Agency school, while another asserts Israel constructed a school over a Hamas tunnel to mislead international media. These claims follow statements made on October 22nd, 2025, by U.S. Vice President J. D. Vance in Jerusalem, who affirmed the U.S. commitment to eradicating Hamas to restore security and mentioned ongoing efforts with partners for the swift return of hostages. During these discussions, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly stated that Turkey would not be permitted to enter Gaza. Previously, Hamas police units released footage on October 22nd, 2025, of weapons and equipment seized from Abu Shabab militia fighters during a raid north of Rafah, including an ATV, motorcycle, and an M-16 rifle. Hamas-affiliated media have suggested that detained militants might face execution after interrogations. In separate security developments, Unit 8200 has claimed that Hamas builds tunnels under schools, amidst reports of increased arms smuggling from Egypt into Israel, with aerial methods becoming more prevalent. Israel's security system has detected a significant number of fence crossings in the past 72 hours and is developing a plan to address this issue. Israel is reportedly assisting Taiwan in the secret development of its T-Dome air defense system, modeled after the Iron Dome, involving radar and missile technology transfers. This collaboration was advanced by a clandestine visit by Taiwan's Deputy Defense Minister Fu Hung-hui to Israel in September 2025, according to a French intelligence website.
