The IDF says troops of the Commando Brigade, alongside other forces, have seized hundreds of weapons during an ongoing offensive in the al-Amal neighborhood of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.
In a video published by the IDF, a cache of firearms, explosive devices, and other military equipment is seen being found by the Paratroopers Brigade’s reconnaissance unit in a building adjacent to al-Amal Hospital.
The Egoz commando unit captured dozens of terror operatives in the neighborhood, who were interrogated by the Military Intelligence Directorate’s Unit 504, the IDF says.
Numerous gunmen have also been killed by troops in al-Amal, including with sniper fire, in close-quarters combat, and by calling in airstrikes, according to the IDF.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
