The IDF releases footage of a recent airstrike on a group of gunmen in southern Gaza’s Rafah.

The cell had been spotted by troops of the Givati Infantry Brigade using a drone, the military says.

Givati troops have killed more than 100 gunmen in Rafah amid an ongoing operation there. Overall, more than 1,000 terror operatives have been killed in Rafah since early May, according to the IDF.

In one engagement, the IDF says Givati soldiers battled and killed a cell of gunmen inside an apartment in Rafah. Inside the home, the troops found weapons, military equipment, and a tunnel shaft.
