Israeli soldiers have eliminated dozens of terrorists and found large quantities of weapons in their recent operations in the Gaza Strip, while naval forces continue to support ground troops with attacks on militia targets. In the last few hours, according to an Israeli military spokesman, naval troops identified and attacked a structure where terrorists ambushed Army troops, while the Army continued its operations in the Strip, “with dozens of terrorists eliminated and a large quantity of weapons located.”
According to the army, its forces continue to operate in Khan Younis, where fighting has intensified since troops expanded their ground offensive towards the south of the Strip in early December. “On the last day, Army snipers, in cooperation with the Israeli air force, eliminated several terrorists and located large quantities of weapons inside a Hamas structure,” the spokesperson added. Added to this was another operation in the Daraj Tuffah area of Gaza City, where troops eliminated 15 terrorists. Furthermore, in the same area, the Army claimed to have located a Hamas post where it found “uniforms and numerous weapons”.
The war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza has lasted 107 days, since October 7, when the Islamic terrorist group carried out a surprise attack on Israeli territory that ended with around 1,200 dead and 240 people taken hostage to the enclave. . Of these, 110 were released, most of them during a week-long truce in late November. On the other hand, the Israeli offensive has so far resulted in more than 25,000 deaths in Gaza, the majority of them women and children – according to data from local authorities, linked to Hamas –, leaving a scenario of widespread devastation in the enclave and a humanitarian crisis that continues to worsen, with almost 2 million internally displaced people.
