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.
