The military says it killed at least four Palestinian terror operatives who posed a threat to troops stationed in the Gaza Strip yesterday.

In three separate incidents in northern Gaza, troops of the 252nd Division identified “five terrorists who carried out suspicious activity on the ground and a terrorist who monitored IDF troops, in a manner that posed an immediate threat to them,” the military says.

In two incidents in the Strip’s south, troops of the Gaza Division spotted “three terrorists who crossed the Yellow Line and approached the troops in a manner that posed an immediate threat to them,” the IDF says.

In all of the incidents, the Israeli Air Force struck the operatives, killing four of them, the military says, adding that the others were also hit.
