Troops of the Golani Brigade operating in the newly created Morag Corridor area, between Rafah and Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, have demolished a Hamas training camp, the military says.
The facility, belonging to Hamas’s Shaboura Battalion, included a mock Israeli tank, photos released by the IDF show.
The IDF says the troops also captured a cache of weapons and destroyed other Hamas infrastructure in the area.
