The IDF said Saturday that it had struck targets across Gaza.

The military noted that among the targets hit were military structures and armed terrorist cells, including a Hamas command center in a school in central Gaza’s Deir al-Balah.
The IDF said the strike killed Hamas operatives hiding within the United Nations school used as shelter for displaced Palestinians. Hamas claimed that 31 people were killed.
Additionally, the IAF struck and dismantled a launch site in the area of Zeitun that was firing projectiles toward Israeli territory, the IDF added.

Following instructions earlier on Saturday to evacuate areas of southern Khan Yunis, IDF troops conducted targeted raids there on terror infrastructure, both above and below the ground, and uncovered large amounts of weaponry, including shoulder-launched missiles, grenades, AK-47s, and other military equipment.

During one of the operations, Israeli troops identified a terrorist cell that carried out a failed launch. IDF troops subsequently eliminated the cell in cooperation with the IAF.
Additionally, in the Rafah area, Israeli personnel carried out targeted raids on several military sites and eliminated armed terrorist cells, the military continued, adding that over the past 48 hours troops killed dozens of terrorists in the area.
