The IDF’s 162nd Division continues to fight Hamas in the Gaza City neighborhoods of Daraj and Tuffah, where the IDF believes the terror group’s last standing battalion in northern Gaza is located.
The IDF says troops of the Bislamach Brigade destroyed Hamas infrastructure in a building from which RPGs were fired at a military vehicle, and the Nahal Brigade directed a fighter jet to strike a building where Hamas operatives were preparing to carry out an anti-tank guided missile attack.
Troops of the 401st and 460th armored brigades killed several Hamas operatives in the Daraj-Tuffah battalion, including by calling in airstrikes, the IDF says.
