The Israeli army has said that fighting continued in Gaza in the past day — particularly in Shejaiyah and Jabalia in the north of the enclave and in Khan Younis in the south, Al Jazeera reports.

Soldiers killed “many terrorists in the north of the Gaza Strip in the past day,” said a statement released in Hebrew by the army on X.

In one incident, the armed forces detected Hamas fighters “observing its soldiers, fired at them and eliminated them,” the statement said.

In another case, the army located and destroyed overnight a firing position in a school complex that served as a base of Hamas’ Shejaiyah Battalion.

In Khan Younis, soldiers conducted raids in various locations and found a variety of weapons, including grenades and rifles, and destroyed two shafts, a rocket launch pit and a weapon warehouse.
