Over 35 targets were struck by the Israeli Air Force across the Gaza Strip over the past day, the military says.

The IDF says the targets included a weapons manufacturing site in central Gaza and a primed rocket launching site.

In northern Gaza, troops of the 252nd Division directed an airstrike on a cell of operatives planning to ambush the forces, the IDF says.

Meanwhile, in southern Gaza, troops of the Gaza Division located and demolished a Hamas tunnel. The IDF says the tunnel, in Rafah’s Shaboura camp, was hundreds of meters long and some 20 meters deep. It was used as a meeting point for Hamas operatives and connected to other underground passages, the military adds.

Nearby, the IDF says the Gaza Division troops located a cache of weapons Hamas had hidden in a former school.

In the Morag Corridor area, between Rafah and Khan Younis, the military says the 36th Division found a cache of weapons and several tunnel shafts.
