The IDF confirms carrying out strikes in northern Gaza’s Beit Lahiya earlier today, which, according to Palestinian media, killed at least nine people, among them journalists.
In a statement, the military says it identified “two terrorists operating a drone that posed a threat to IDF troops in the area.”
The two operatives were targeted in a strike, and a short while later, “a number of additional terrorists collected the drone operating equipment and entered a vehicle,” the military says.
The group of operatives that had collected the equipment was targeted in a second strike, the IDF adds.
