The IDF says troops have so far killed more than 50 Hamas gunmen during its ongoing raid at Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital.
The operation, which began early Monday morning, is being carried out by the Navy’s Shayetet 13 commando unit, the 401st Armored Brigade, and the Shin Bet security agency.
The IDF says that some 180 suspects have been captured so far in the raid. Yesterday, the IDF reported 200 suspects had been detained, indicating some had been released.
Meanwhile in central Gaza, the IDF says the Nahal Brigade killed several Hamas operatives over the past day. In one incident, the Nahal troops spotted a gunman opening fire at them, and directed a tank to shell the operative, killing him.
In the Khan Younis suburb al-Qarara, in southern Gaza, the IDF says the 7th Armored Brigade and Air Force carried out strikes on several Hamas sites over the past day, including an anti-tank launching position used in a recent attack which did not cause any injuries.
The IDF also releases footage showing several recent strikes in the Gaza Strip.
