After three months of fighting in Khan Younis, the IDF has withdrawn the Paratroopers Brigade from the Gaza Strip, replacing it with other forces in the area.
“Paratroopers Brigade, be proud of the many achievements you have achieved,” says the commander of the 98th Division, Brig. Gen. Dan Goldfus during a ceremony this morning.
“We have not yet finished the war and our duties, we continue to dismantle Hamas, destroy its systems above and below ground, strike it and defeat it,” he adds.
The Bislamach Brigade — the IDF’s School for Infantry Corps Professions and Squad Commanders — will replace the Paratroopers Brigade in Khan Younis.
The IDF will decide in the coming days where the Paratroopers Brigade will be sent next.
