The IDF announced today (Thursday) that the Commando Division was continuing the offensive in the Khan Yunis area, deepening operational control of a bastion of Hamas terrorists. The soldiers, who specialize in guerilla warfare, are fighting in a particularly challenging area and demonstrating their operational skill and experience.
According to a statement by the IDF Spokesperson, the advancement of the forces in the area was accompanied by a great deal of friction with terrorist squads, who were eliminated with precision rifle fire, guided missiles, and tank fire. In one case, Egoz unit soldiers identified three armed terrorists and struck them with an Iron Sting missile which eliminated them. During another raid on a building in the area, soldiers eliminated four terrorists in close-quarters combat.
