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.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
