The IDF says it has killed dozens of terror operatives amid an ongoing operation in east Buriej and east Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip.
The operation began earlier this week, and is being carried out by the 98th Division.
Troops located tunnel shafts and demolished infrastructure used by terror groups in the area, the IDF says.
The head of a Hamas rocket-launching cell was also killed in an airstrike in the central Gaza area, the IDF adds.
The IDF also continues its offensive in southern Gaza’s Rafah, where it says troops of the 162nd Division located additional tunnel shafts and weapons over the past day.
The military also continues to operate in the Netzarim Corridor in central Gaza, with the Paratroopers Brigade being deployed to the area, joining the 99th Division.
