Combat against terrorists in Jabaliya in Gaza continues
IDF soldiers are continuing to conduct limited, localized, targeted raids in southern Lebanon, eliminating Hezbollah terrorists and dismantling terror infrastructure and weapons stockpiles both above and below ground. In one operation, the soldiers located and dismantled a structure where they found two tunnel shafts and a large number of weapons. In other joint aerial and ground operations, the forces struck terror infrastructure sites used by Hezbollah terrorists for long-term stays and for planning and executing attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers.
In IAF strikes on terror targets over the past day, dozens of terrorists were eliminated and approximately 110 Hezbollah terror targets were struck, including launchers that were aimed toward Israeli civilian communities, weapons storage facilities and terror infrastructure sites.
