A soldier with the Paratroopers Brigade’s 890th Battalion was seriously wounded yesterday during fighting in Gaza City’s Shejaiya neighborhood, the military says.
The operation in Shejaiya, launched on Thursday, came after the IDF said it identified Hamas operatives regrouping in the area, as well as new intelligence on the terror group’s infrastructure.
