IDF strikes over 40 terror targets throughout Gaza, destroys terror infrastructure
The Israel Air Force (IAF) struck some 40 terror targets throughout the Gaza Strip in the past day, the military said on Friday.
Among the targets were terrorists, military structures and weapons storage facilities, the IDF added.
In parallel, troops destroyed terror infrastructure and killed terrorists in Shabura and Tel Sultan in Rafah situated in the southern Gaza Strip.
In northern Gaza, troops identified terrorists via an IAF aircraft who were subsequently attacked. In addition, the soldiers demolished weapons caches located on the area.
On Thursday, the IDF said troops had operated in the ‘Morag’ Corridor located in southern Gaza, dismantling rocket launchers and terrorist infrastructure sites, as well as tunnel shafts and mortars.
In a later Friday announcement, the military reported that the 16th Brigade, under the command of the 252nd Division, dismantled Hamas terror infrastructure in the Shejaiya area.
Since beginning operations in that area, the troops have also reportedly killed dozens of terrorists, including a terrorist cell that was planning a sniper attack against IDF soldiers.
