The IDF releases footage showing the identification of a cell of Hamas operatives armed with RPGs and assault rifles in the central Gaza Strip, and a subsequent airstrike carried out against them.

According to the IDF, troops of the 179th Reserve Armored Brigade spotted the Hamas cell and ambushed them.

After the cell entered a structure the IDF says was used by Hamas as a command center, the reservists called in an airstrike, killing them and destroying the building.
