Troops of the IDF’s Bislamach Brigade located a cache of mortars inside a daycare center in northern Gaza, footage published by the military shows.

The IDF says the Golani Brigade’s reconnaissance unit, meanwhile, raided the al-Karmel school in Gaza City, and found firearms, RPGs and military equipment.

Separately, the IDF says troops of the 7th Armored Brigade and Golani’s 12th Battalion identified a group of Hamas operatives in Gaza City, and attempted to chase after them. As the gunmen fled, the troops called in a drone strike to kill them.
