The IDF conducted operations in Beit Hanoun, killing several threats with air and ground strikes, and arresting additional suspects
Following prior intelligence information indicating the presence of terrorists in the area, IDF and ISA forces conducted a targeted raid on a terrorist meeting point in the Beit Hanoun area. In cooperation with the IAF, the troops struck dozens of terrorists from both the air and ground, and additional terrorists were apprehended.
In Beit Layiheh, IDF troops eliminated terrorists and located and dismantled large quantities of weapons, including explosives and dozens of grenades.
Earlier yesterday, (Sunday), with the direction of IDF and ISA intelligence, the IAF struck terrorists who were operating within a command and control center in a compound that previously served as the "Abu Shabak" clinic in northern Gaza. The command and control center was used by Hamas to store weapons and plan and execute attacks against IDF troops and the State of Israel.
Furthermore, Saturday night, a terrorist cell planning imminent attacks against IDF troops was struck in three different locations in Gaza City by the IAF.
Prior to the strikes, numerous steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians, including the use of precise munitions, aerial surveillance, and additional intelligence information.
