Dozens of gunmen were killed amid IDF operations in Gaza, and some 30 targets were struck by the Israeli Air Force across the Strip in the past day, the military says in a morning update.

Targets hit by the IAF included buildings used by terror groups, armed terror operatives, rocket launching sites, tunnel shafts and observation posts, according to the military.

The IDF says that in Rafah’s northwestern Tel Sultan neighborhood, troops with the 162nd Division killed dozens of armed terror operatives, destroyed sites belonging to terror groups, and located numerous weapons.

In Khan Younis and on the outskirts of Deir al-Balah, the military says that troops with the 98th Division killed dozens more gunmen and raided Hamas sites.

The division also directed an airstrike on several terror operatives who had been spotted in an area from which rockets were launched at Israeli border communities several times in recent days, the IDF says.

Meanwhile, in the Netzarim Corridor of central Gaza, reservists with the 252nd Division struck buildings that the IDF says were used by Hamas to attack troops.
