Over the last day, Israeli Air Force jets have targeted 250 sites in the Gaza Strip believed to be linked to militant activities. This includes two rocket launchers that were reportedly used in the recent attacks on the Tel Aviv area.
In central Gaza, specifically in Deir al-Balah, Israeli forces conducted operations against members of Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. These operations resulted in the destruction of several facilities used for militant activities. An airstrike on Wednesday morning in the Nuseirat Camp, located about 3 miles northeast of Deir al-Balah, led to the death of six individuals and injured several others, as reported by Palestinian sources.
Additionally, Israeli military actions were reported in the Jabalia refugee camp, Beit Lahia, Tel al-Za’tar, and areas surrounding Beit Hanoun in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.
Israeli ground forces have been actively searching for and dismantling weapons, tunnel entrances, explosives, and other infrastructure used for militant activities. In the northern Gaza Strip, near a school, Israeli Defense Forces engaged and neutralized an armed group and destroyed a nearby tunnel entrance.
Reports from Arab media indicate that IDF armored bulldozers were operating in the eastern region of Khan Yunis. These bulldozers are being used to uncover improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and to demolish buildings, revealing tunnel entrances used by Hamas. This is intended to facilitate safer operations for Israeli ground troops.
A red alert siren was activated on Wednesday in Kibbutz Re’im, located near the Gaza border. This area was notably close to the site of a tragic event on October 7 at the Nova music festival, where numerous Israeli civilians were killed by Hamas militants.
During one of the several recent attacks, a man in his sixties sustained minor injuries from rocket shrapnel. The Magen David Adom emergency medical service responded to this incident.
