The 81st day of the war. In recent days, the combat team of the 931st Battalion, with the help of the fire complex of the Nahal Brigade combat team, eliminated many terrorists in encounters in the Daraj-Tuffah area in the northern Gaza Strip.
In light of the many encounters and the realization that the area is saturated with terrorists and weapons, yesterday the battalion combat team set out to carry out proactive raids in the area. During the raids, in one of the civilian homes, the fighters located dozens of Kalashnikovs, grenades, bazookas, RPG missile heads, and an Israeli license plate found inside the children's room. These findings are another example of the attempt by the terrorist organization Hamas to hide weapons and terrorist activity under civilian cover.
Earlier it was announced that last night forces from the 261st Brigade (Bahad 1) encountered an armed terrorist squad in the Jabalia area that tried to place an explosive device near an IDF tank where some of the fighters were. During the battle they waged with the squad, the fighters directed an Air Force aircraft, and with the help of the brigade's fire complex, the terrorists were eliminated and the military structure they were operating in was destroyed.
