The IDF releases new footage of the Kfir Brigade operating in the area of southern Gaza’s Khan Younis.

During raids carried out by the brigade, troops located assault rifles, explosives devices, missile warheads, rockets and other military equipment belonging to Hamas and its elite Nukhba force, the IDF says.

The footage released by the army also shows a large cache of mortars found by the soldiers.

Last week, a soldier of the Kfir Brigade’s Duchifat Battalion, Sgt. Roi Tal, 19, was killed during a gun battle with Hamas operatives in a building in the Khan Younis area.
