Earlier today (Sunday), IDF troops identified armed Hamas Nukhba terrorists in southern Gaza who operated to advance imminent attacks against IDF troops.

In an additional incident last night (Saturday), IDF troops operating in northern Gaza identified two terrorists carrying out suspicious activity on the ground in the area of the Yellow Line, and approached the troops, posing an imminent threat.

In both incidents, the Israeli Air Force, guided by IDF soldiers, struck and eliminated the terrorist in order to remove the threat.

The IDF stressed that prior to the strikes, steps were taken to mitigate harm to civilians, including the use of precise munitions and aerial surveillance.
