Over the past week, the IDF says, the Gaza Division’s Northern Brigade and the Kfir Brigade’s Netzah Yehuda Battalion operated in the Beit Hanoun area in the northern part of the Strip.
Amid the “targeted” operation, troops destroyed dozens of sites, including buildings, used by Hamas and other terror groups, according to the IDF.
The IDF says the Netzah Yehuda troops also encountered and killed a Hamas cell that came out of a tunnel in the Beit Hanoun area during the operation.
Among the gunmen that were killed was a Hamas company commander, the IDF says.
The Netzah Yehuda Battalion is made up of ultra-Orthodox and religious troops, and is normally deployed to the West Bank.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
