The IDF discovered Hamas Nukhba military ballistic vests hidden in UNRWA bags stashed in a medical clinic in Gaza, the Israeli military said on Saturday morning.
Separately, Israeli forces located and destroyed a weapons storage facility containing dozens of Kalashnikov rifles, the IDF added.
Israeli soldiers recovered the Hamas ballistic vests stored in UNRWA bags during a raid in the area of Gaza City, in the northern portion of the strip, the IDF noted.
The raid was directed by intelligence after Israeli troops came under fire in the area in previous days.
A neighboring building of the raided medical clinic reportedly contained RPGs, AK-47s, and ammunition.
