Israel’s military said that it killed “dozens of terrorists” during fighting in the Gaza Strip in the past 24 hours, while its troops have encircled Khan Younis, Reuters reports.

“Over the past day, IDF troops carried out an extensive operation during which they encircled Khan Younis and deepened the operation in the area. The area is a significant stronghold of Hamas Khan Younis Brigade,” the military said.

“Ground troops engaged in close-quarters combat, directed (air force) strikes, and used intelligence to coordinate fire, resulting in the elimination of dozens of terrorists,” it said.
