The IDF reported that soldiers killed several gunmen and located tunnel shafts during operations in eastern Rafah over the past day.
The tunnels discovered in the area are being prepared to be demolished by combat engineers. In one incident in eastern Rafah, Givati soldiers spotted an RPG-wielding operative, and killed him.
In the area of the Rafah Border Crossing with Egypt, the military said the 401st Armored Brigade is continuing to carry out raids on the Gazan side, following “indications and intelligence information that terrorists are taking advantage of the crossing area for terror purposes.”
The Air Force, meanwhile, struck more than 100 targets across the Strip over the past day, including buildings used by terror groups, observation posts, and rocket launchers.
