The IDF says a recent airstrike in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis killed a terrorist who participated in the October 7 onslaught.

Also over the past day, the Israeli Air Force struck several sites belonging to terror groups across the Gaza Strip, including buildings, rocket launch positions, and other infrastructure, according to the IDF.

Among the targets were also a building and tunnel shafts adjacent to a launch site used in a rocket attack on Re’im yesterday, the IDF says.

Meanwhile, the IDF says the Nahal Brigade continues to operate in central Gaza, where it says the troops killed several gunmen over the past day in close-quarters combat.

Additional operatives deemed by the troops to be a threat were killed in airstrikes and sniper fire, the IDF adds.
