Israeli forces killed at least nine Palestinians in Gaza in strikes on Saturday, according to the Gaza health ministry, the latest in a string of Israeli attacks on the enclave that have kept up despite a roughly two-month-old truce with Hamas. Since the cease-fire went into effect in mid-January, the military has conducted constant strikes in Gaza. Israel has accused militants of threatening its forces by laying explosive devices, flying drones or by approaching where Israeli troops are deployed. Hamas has claimed those attacks have killed more than 150 people since the truce took effect, at least some of them civilians. And it has accused Israel of repeatedly violating the agreement by continuing military operations.

Knowledge graph construction (KGC) is a multifaceted undertaking involving the extraction of entities, relations, and events. Traditionally, large language models (LLMs) have been viewed as solitary task-solving agents in this complex landscape. However, this paper challenges this paradigm by introducing a novel framework, CooperKGC. Departing from the conventional approach, CooperKGC establishes a collaborative processing network, assembling a KGC collaboration team capable of concurrently addressing entity, relation, and event extraction tasks. Our experiments unequivocally demonstrate that fostering collaboration and information interaction among diverse agents within CooperKGC yields superior results compared to individual cognitive processes operating in isolation. Importantly, our findings reveal that the collaboration facilitated by CooperKGC enhances knowledge selection, correction, and aggregation capabilities across multiple rounds of interactions.

Palestinian health officials said 15 Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire and more than 750 hit by live rounds Friday, making it the bloodiest day in Gaza since the 2014 cross-border war between Israel and Hamas. In Friday's confrontations, large crowds gathered near the fence, with smaller groups of protesters rushing forward, throwing stones and burning tires. Israeli troops responded with live fire and rubber-coated steel pellets, while drones dropped tear gas from above. Gen. Ronen Manelis, said that while thousands of Palestinians approached the border Friday, those engaged in stone-throwing were in the hundreds. General Manelis denied soldiers used excessive force, saying those killed by Israeli troops were men between the ages of 18 and 30 who were involved in violence and belonged to militant factions.
