IDF says it struck Hamas terror operatives in Jabalia command center

The IDF and Shin Bet say they carried out a strike on Hamas terror operatives in the Jabalia area a short time ago.

“The operatives were in a command and control compound that served as terror infrastructure and as a central meeting point for the terrorist organization,” according to their joint statement.

“Additionally, the building was used by the Jabalia Battalion to advance [attacks] plans against Israeli civilians and IDF forces,” they add.

The military says various measures were taken ahead of the strikes to minimize the risk to civilians, including intelligence gathering and aerial surveillance.
