The IDF's 401st Brigade has been operating in the Rafah area over the past month, successfully eliminating 300 terrorists and most of Hamas' Tel Sultan Battalion chain of command.
A large weapons storage unit was also located containing long-range rockets as well as weapons stores containing anti-tank missiles, grenades and other weapons. They were all destroyed.
