The Israel Defense Forces says it continued ground operations in the Gaza Strip today, targeting several Hamas operatives and positions.

The IDF says that during the operations which began last night troops struck terror cells attempting to carry out anti-tank guided missile and mortar attacks.

Additionally, the ground forces found and destroyed a booby-trapped home, the IDF says.

Also during the raid, the IDF says tank forces directed a combat helicopter to strike a building in the Gaza Strip, where a number of Hamas members were gathered.

The military publishes a series of clips showing the forces operating inside Gaza.
