Israeli fighter jets and other aircraft carried out strikes against some 30 targets across the Gaza Strip over the past day, the military says.
The targets included buildings used by terror groups, rocket launchers, tunnel shafts, other infrastructure, as well as cells of armed terror operatives, according to the IDF.
The strikes come as troops continue to operate in southern Gaza’s Rafah and in the Netzarim Corridor in the central part of the Strip.
In Rafah, the IDF says troops of the Givati Brigade killed several gunmen in close-quarters combat; the Nahal Brigade located and destroyed several booby-trapped buildings; and the 401st Armored Brigade killed several more terror operatives and located military equipment.
In the central Gaza Strip, the IDF says it carried out a strike on a cell of Hamas operatives and a weapons depot.
Bridging the US-Israel divide
While the heart of The Times of Israel’s work takes place in Israel, so many of Jerusalem’s actions are influenced by those in Washington’s halls of power.
As ToI’s US bureau chief, I work to gain access to decision-makers in the United States government so our readers can understand the US-Israel relationship beyond the platitudes evident in public statements.
I'm proud of our ability to inform without sensationalizing, our dedication to be fast while ensuring accuracy, and our determination to present Israel's entire, complex story.
