The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have been intensifying their efforts to eliminate operatives and target Hamas infrastructure in the Gaza Strip, specifically focusing on the areas of Zaytun and Khan Yunis.

In a recent operation, IDF ground troops engaged and killed approximately 20 operatives in Zaytun, while Israeli Naval Forces targeted and destroyed vessels used by Hamas and Islamic Jihad in southern Gaza. Additionally, airstrikes were carried out on over 10 targets used to launch attacks on IDF troops in the region.

During searches in central Gaza, IDF troops discovered and destroyed a booby-trapped launch position, preventing potential rocket launches towards Israeli territory. In western Khan Yunis, over 15 operatives were eliminated during targeted raids, with weapons, grenades, and explosive devices found in their possession.

One noteworthy incident involved IDF troops engaging and eliminating a operative carrying an RPG in close combat in Zaytun, preventing a potential threat to the troops. Furthermore, a sniper ambush successfully took out an armed Hamas cell in Khan Yunis.

Overall, the IDF's operational activity in Zaytun and Khan Yunis continues to target and eliminate operatives, disrupt their infrastructure, and prevent future attacks on Israeli territory.
