Early this morning the IDF says it struck a cell of terror operatives that were identified emerging from a tunnel shaft in southern Gaza’s Rafah.
The operatives were spotted by soldiers monitoring surveillance cameras, and a short while later a drone struck and killed them.
The IDF publishes footage of the strike.
Also in Rafah, troops with the 162nd Division directed an airstrike on a building where they had spotted a cell of operatives, the IDF says.
Meanwhile, in Khan Younis, the military says that troops with the 98th Division directed strikes against a site used to launch a barrage of four rockets at the border community of Kissufim yesterday.
Another strike directed by the 98th Division was carried out against a building used by Hamas’s rocket unit, according to the IDF.
More than 30 other targets were struck by Israeli aircraft across Gaza over the past day, including buildings used by terror groups, anti-tank launch positions, and weapon depots, the military adds.
