The IDF carried out a drone strike against several Hamas operatives in the southern Gaza Strip on Tuesday, according to the military, with Palestinian media reporting four dead.

The strike took place in the Mawasi area.

The military confirms the strike today, but does not immediately provide further details.

Also on Tuesday, a strike in northern Gaza’s Jabalia killed three, and a strike in Khan Younis killed two others, according to Palestinian media.

Those strikes also targeted low-ranking Hamas operatives, according to the military.
