The IDF says the Nahal Brigade killed some 18 Hamas operatives in the central Gaza Strip over the past day.
The gunmen were killed with sniper fire and by the troops calling in tank shelling and airstrikes.
In southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, the IDF says troops of the Givati Brigade spotted two Hamas operatives loading a motorbike with military gear, and called in an airstrike. Another two gunmen approaching the troops were also killed in an airstrike, the IDF says.
Also in Khan Younis, the 7th Armored Brigade killed several more Hamas operatives and seized weapons, the IDF says.
In one incident, the IDF says the troops shelled a building from which anti-tank missiles were fired. The missile attack had caused no injuries.
