The combat teams of the 3rd Brigade, the 8th Brigade, the Commando Brigade, and the Multidimensional Unit operated under the command of the 99th Division in the heart of Gaza City, the IDF stated Saturday.
IDF soldiers raided Hamas infrastructure used for building up terror operations located inside UNRWA headquarters and also carried out additional searches in the area, the IDF noted.
During operations, with intelligence support, IDF soldiers raided buildings where Hamas terrorists were staying, including a building in a civilian neighborhood where Hamas terrorists were entrenched and a high-rise building in Gaza City.
In these buildings, IDF soldiers found weapons, cartridges, equipment of the Hamas naval commando, tactical vests, intelligence materials, and various weapons and firearms.
According to IDF reports, in the past week, IDF soldiers eliminated more than 150 terrorists, destroyed over 100 terrorist infrastructures, and uncovered an underground terrorist workshop.
CNN reported that 13 people were killed in strikes in the area of the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza, citing hospital officials.
Residents in the area told CNN that a residential block south of Nuseirat was struck.
CNN quoted the IDF as stating, “Overnight, the IDF struck terror targets throughout the Gaza Strip, including terrorists and terror infrastructure sites in the area of Nuseirat.”
The Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry stated in response to IDF operations on Saturday that 37 Palestinians had been killed and 54 injured who arrived at hospitals in the past day.
The number has not been independently verified, and the ministry does not differentiate between civilians and combatants in its toll.
Last week, the IDF conducted raids on a Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad combat complex embedded in a former UNRWA compound. Troops of the Commando Brigade’s combat team, operating under the direction of the 99th Division, located significant terror infrastructure embedded in the facility.
