The IDF releases footage showing a drone strike on an RPG-wielding Hamas operative in Gaza City today.

According to the IDF, as the Nahal Brigade set out for an offensive against Hamas’s Daraj-Tuffah battalion in Gaza City, troops spotted a Hamas operative with an RPG approaching them.

The troops called in an airstrike, killing the operative.

In another strike, which occurred yesterday, an Air Force drone targeted several Hamas operatives who had launched an explosive-laden drone that was set to target troops of the Givati Brigade in the Khan Younis area, according to the IDF.

The IAF drone operator instructed the Givati troops to enter a nearby building to be shielded from the airstrike on the Hamas cell.
