The IDF details the operations of the Nahal Brigade’s reconnaissance unit in northern Gaza’s Jabaliya camp over the past week, during which the troops encountered and killed dozens of Hamas operatives.
The IDF says in one of the encounters, explosives were detonated and Hamas gunmen opened fire with machine guns and launched anti-tank missiles from two directions at the troops.
“The terrorists were eliminated by gunfire carried out by the troops, and accurate shelling by tanks from the armored forces under the command of the reconnaissance unit,” the IDF says.
In another incident, the IDF says an anti-tank missile was fired at the soldiers, with the troops returning fire and killing three operatives. A fourth gunman, part of the cell, was killed in a drone strike directed by the Nahal troops, it adds.
