The IDF releases new footage from the operations of the 7th Armored Brigade in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, saying the troops have been raiding the homes of Hamas commanders and have nabbed operatives hiding in a school.
According to the IDF, the 7th Brigade operated this week in new areas of Khan Younis, where troops had not yet been, during which they searched the homes of senior Hamas officials.
“In the heart of the residential neighborhoods, the troops encountered dozens of terrorists and eliminated them with tank shelling, in close-quarters combat, and by directing airstrikes,” the IDF says.
At the homes of the Hamas officials, the IDF says the troops found RPGs, explosives, assault rifles and other military equipment.
The troops also captured dozens of suspected terror operatives hiding in a school in Khan Younis.
“During their interrogation, the terrorists provided intelligence information that went directly to the forces operating in Khan Younis,” the IDF says.
