The Israeli Air Force struck some 40 targets in the Gaza Strip over the past day, the military says.
The IDF says the targets included terror operatives, buildings used by terror groups, and weapons depots.
The strikes come as troops continue to operate on the ground across the Strip.
In the Tel Sultan and Shaboura areas of southern Gaza’s Rafah, the military says troops of the Gaza Division destroyed Hamas infrastructure and killed several operatives during an ambush.
In northern Gaza, the 252nd Division destroyed a weapons depot and directed drone strikes on operatives, the army says.
