The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) are intensifying their operations in the Zaytoun area, situated on the southeastern edge of Gaza City, as well as in Khan Younis in the southern part of the Gaza Strip. Caliber.Az, citing information from the IDF Spokesperson's Office, provides an update on the ongoing military actions.

Over the past 24 hours, IDF soldiers have successfully "mopped up" the Zaytoun area, eliminating several terrorists and discovering weapons in the region. A notable incident involved the use of a helicopter to eliminate militants, showcasing the military's varied tactics.

Near Khan Younis, an IDF strike targeted a militant ambush in a building. Subsequent to the strike, secondary explosions were observed, indicating the impact on the intended target.

Moreover, IDF units identified and eliminated a militant who was actively firing at the Israeli military near Khan Younis. The search also led to the discovery of weapons in multiple buildings.

The IDF Air Force conducted precision strikes on launch pads used by terrorists to target Ashkelon in recent attacks. These strategic attacks aim to neutralize potential threats and protect Israeli civilians.

Furthermore, a significant development occurred in the southern sector, where a vehicle strike resulted in the death of five terrorists. Additional militants were eliminated in strikes on various buildings, demonstrating the IDF's commitment to dismantling terrorist infrastructure.

The IDF emphasizes its dedication to the ongoing mission and assures the public that efforts are ongoing. The situation is dynamic, with the military actively engaging in operations to secure the region and eliminate threats to national security.
