Killing 100 terrorists and demolishing tunnels: IDF completes operations in central Gaza camps
Some of the infrastructure, in addition to launch sites, were located in proximity to the Gaza border communities in Israel.
Throughout numerous operations over multiple weeks in eastern Deir el-Balah and eastern El-Bureij in the Gaza Strip, troops of the 98th Division unearthed weapons, killed some 100 terrorists, and struck terror infrastructure, the military said on Tuesday.
Some of the infrastructure, in addition to launch sites, were located in proximity to the Gaza border communities in Israel.
Guided by intelligence information, troops of the 7th Brigade, Kfir, and engineer forces found several tunnel shafts. The soldiers demolished two tunnels, which were approximately a kilometer each, and further underground facilities.
