More than 30 targets were struck by the Israeli Air Force in the Gaza Strip over the past day, as troops battled and killed dozens of gunmen, the IDF says in a morning update.
The targets hit by IAF aircraft included Hamas compounds, weapon depots, and rocket launching positions in Khan Younis, according to the military.
In Khan Younis and on the outskirts of Deir al-Balah, the IDF says that troops with the 98th Division killed dozens of gunmen and destroyed dozens of sites belonging to terror groups.
Further south, in Rafah, the IDF’s 162nd Division continues to operate in the Tel Sultan neighborhood, where the military says troops killed dozens more terror operatives in the past day.
Meanwhile, in central Gaza’s Netzarim Corridor, reservists with the 252nd Division killed a terror operative who was carrying explosives, and struck a rocket launching site, the IDF adds.
