The Israeli Air Force struck some 140 targets in the Gaza Strip in the past day, including buildings used by terror groups, operatives, and other infrastructure, the military says.
The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza said yesterday that 77 Palestinians had been confirmed dead by Israeli fire during the previous 24 hours.
The strikes come as ground troops from three IDF divisions continue to push into Gaza City.
In one incident in Gaza City, the military says troops of the Golani Brigade spotted a cell of five Hamas fighters that launched RPGs at a building where the forces were stationed. No injuries were caused in the attack, and the troops then directed a drone strike to kill the gunmen, the IDF says.
The IDF says that, meanwhile, the 98th Division has “deepened their operational control” in Gaza City, and in the past day directed strikes on Hamas sites and operatives.
In southern Gaza, the military says the Gaza Division’s forces killed additional terror operatives and destroyed Hamas infrastructure, including surveillance equipment.
