Over the past few days, the Nahal Brigade's combat team from Division 162 has been operating in the Zeitoun area in northern Gaza. The IDF eliminated terrorists in short-range battles, located and destroyed attack tunnels, as well as terrorist infrastructure belonging to Hamas.
In a raid on a weapons factory, soldiers located and destroyed tunnels used for attacking IDF forces along with a weapons warehouse, and located explosive charges, vests, grenades, Kalashnikovs, and bullet cartridges.
Earlier, the IDF spokesman reported that the soldiers from the 401st Brigade, who are also operating in the neighborhood, eliminated terrorists, destroyed tunnel shafts, and seized numerous weapons.
In one instance, soldiers identified two terrorist squads targeting them and within a short time directed an aircraft that attacked and eliminated the squads.
