Gaza Strip - July 25, 2024

In a series of coordinated operations, Israeli combat units from Brigades 7 and Paratroopers, operating under the command of Brigade 98 in Khan Younis, have successfully neutralized approximately 100 militants in the region.

During targeted air strikes guided by Brigade 98, seven militant cells that launched mortars towards Israeli forces were swiftly eliminated, with no casualties reported on our side.

In subsequent air operations, airborne units targeted militants preparing to engage our forces. Unit 414 identified and engaged two armed militants operating in Rafah. In cooperation with the Air Force, airstrikes were conducted, resulting in the elimination of the militants. Shortly thereafter, another militant was identified retrieving weapons from a previously targeted militant and was also neutralized from the air alongside an additional militant.

Combat teams from Givati and Brigade 401, under the command of Brigade 162, eliminated a number of militants in Rafah who posed a threat to our forces and discovered tunnels and combat equipment, including long-range rocket launchers and explosive devices in Tel As Sultan. Approximately 45 terrorist targets were attacked in the past day by fighter jets, combat helicopters, and aircraft, including militant cells, tunnel openings, military structures, and various terrorist infrastructure.
