Israeli officials have alleged that Egypt has been establishing military infrastructure with suspected offensive purposes, including the expansion of aircraft runways and the construction of underground facilities, according to Axius. This development was reported by MTV Lebanon News via an X post, citing the Israeli officials. The specific nature and extent of these alleged Egyptian military activities have not been further detailed in the provided sources. These claims emerge amidst ongoing Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) operations in Gaza.

The operations have included dismantling terror sites and striking targets across Gaza City, Northern Gaza, and Southern Gaza, including Khan Yunis and Rafah, as stated by the IDF. Earlier reports from September 20th, 2025, indicated that the Israeli Air Force struck over 100 terror targets in Gaza, including underground sites and weapons storage. Al Jazeera English reported six additional fatalities in an Israeli attack on Gaza City's Tuffah neighborhood between 10:04 AM and 10:34 AM UTC, contributing to a day's total reported deaths of 51 at that time. Social media posts around 7:00 AM UTC described Gaza City as engulfed in flames due to Israeli bombings.
