The IDF names nine Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad operatives killed in an overnight strike in central Gaza’s Nuseirat.

According to the IDF, some 30 terror operatives were gathered in three classrooms at a UN school. Palestinian civilians were also sheltering at the site, in an area the IDF says was separate from where the strike took place.

IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari in a press conference says the military is working to identify the other terrorists who were killed in the attack.

“Some of these terrorists participated in the massacre on October 7. We will pursue anyone who participated in October 7,” he says.
