The war is expanding: it was released for publication that the 98th Division, which includes the commando formation and other special units, launched a combined attack on the area of the city of Khan Yunis against the centers of gravity of Hamas. Within a few hours the fighters of the division broke through the defense lines of the Khan Yunis Brigade, surrounded the city and for the first time began to maneuver in the heart of the area.
Watch the footage from the fighting:
According to the IDF spokesman, from the beginning of the attack, the fighters of the division eliminated many terrorists in encounters and firing from the air, located about 30 tunnel shafts and destroyed them. The forces that launched the divisional attack attacked many terrorist targets in the region, when the forces raided a Hamas battalion post and located weapons and intelligence means. At the same time, other forces are besieging the city of Khan Yunis.
Later, the commando formation and the Givati brigade arrived at the center of Khan Yunis and began targeted raids in the heart of the city. The fighters eliminated terrorists, destroyed terrorist infrastructure and located weapons. In addition, terrorist targets were attacked, including a warehouse for weapons located inside a mosque.
The Khan Yunis Brigade is one of the two most dominant divisions in Hamas, with the city of Khan Yunis being a center of gravity for the terrorist organization and identified as a military and governmental symbol. The entire leadership of the terrorist organization Hamas, political and military, grew up in the area of the city of Khan Yunis, among them Yahya Sinwar, Mohammed Sinwar and Mohammed Deif. Now the city is surrounded by the 98th Division.
