Over 250 terror targets were struck by the Israeli Air Force in the Gaza Strip in the past 48 hours, the military says.
The IDF says the targets included operatives, booby-trapped buildings, weapon depots, anti-tank launch posts, sniper posts, tunnels, and other terror infrastructure.
At least 143 Palestinians were killed in Gaza over the past two days, according to statistics published by the Hamas-run health ministry last night.
The strikes come as five IDF divisions, made up of tens of thousands of troops, continue to operate across Gaza.
The military says in Gaza City’s Shejaiya and Zeitoun neighborhoods, troops of the 98th Division located Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad observation posts and caches of explosive devices.
Numerous operatives were killed elsewhere by the troops, including by calling in airstrikes, the IDF adds.
