The IDF says troops raided a school used by gunmen in the central Gaza Strip, as part of an ongoing pinpoint operation against Hamas and other terror groups on the outskirts of Nuseirat.
At the Martyr Ibrahim al-Maqadma School, just northeast of Nuseirat, the IDF says troops of the Nahal Brigade located and neutralized several heavy primed explosives that were hidden in the classrooms and courtyard.
The IDF says the troops also located an observation post at the school that had been used by the gunmen.
When the troops arrived, the operatives had already fled, according to the IDF, leaving behind some equipment.
