Dozens of gunmen have been killed by Israeli troops so far in a new operation launched yesterday in Gaza City, the IDF says.
Amid the raid, carried out by the 99th Division, the military says forces also located weaponry.
The IDF said yesterday it launched the operation in southern and western neighborhoods of Gaza City after identifying Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad infrastructure and operatives in the area.
Meanwhile, the 98th Division continues to operate in the eastern Shejaiya neighborhood of Gaza City, where over the past day the IDF says troops killed gunmen, located weapons, and demolished a tunnel.
In Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, dozens more terror operatives were killed over the past day, in close-quarters combat and in airstrikes, the military says.
Across Gaza, the Israeli Air Force struck numerous targets over the past day, including buildings used by terror groups, tunnel shafts, and other infrastructure, according to the IDF.
