The IDF says troops of the Nahal and 551st brigades raided several Hamas sites in northern Gaza’s Jabaliya this morning, discovering a truck with long-range rockets inside.
Other weapon caches were found in the area, it says.
Additionally, the IDF says the 551st Brigade identified several Hamas operatives hiding in buildings in the Jabaliya area and directed airstrikes on them.
Another strike was carried out against a building previously used to launch anti-tank missiles at troops, the IDF adds.
In southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, the IDF says troops of the 7th Armored Brigade raided the homes of senior Hamas officials, finding tunnel shafts.
