The IDF says its raid on Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital is ongoing, with the military saying troops killed dozens of gunmen and captured weapons over the past day.
Hundreds of members of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad have been captured so far in the Shifa operation, which began early on March 18, according to the IDF.
The IDF says additional Hamas operatives were killed during operations over the past day in southern Gaza’s al-Qarara and the al-Amal neighborhood in Khan Younis, where troops also captured caches of weapons.
The Israeli Air Force also targeted dozens of sites across the Gaza Strip, largely in support of forces maneuvering on the ground, the IDF says.
The IDF says the sites included tunnels and buildings used by Hamas gunmen, and other infrastructure.
In central Gaza, the IDF says the Nahal Brigade killed several gunmen over the past day, including by calling in airstrikes.
