The IDF has reported on the progress of the ground offensive in the Gaza Strip. The main combat actions are taking place in Khan Yunis, but fighting also continues in the sector's north and center.
The IDF says on the night of March 3rd, the Israeli Air Force carried out a wave of airstrikes against some 50 Hamas targets in western Khan Younis within just six minutes.
The targets identified by the 98th Division included underground infrastructure, buildings used by Hamas, anti-tank launch positions, booby-trapped buildings, and staging grounds where operatives were gathered.
After the wave of strikes, the IDF started a large-scale divisional ground attack. Significant damage was inflicted, and numerous terrorists were eliminated.
Meanwhile, in central Gaza, the IDF says the Nahal Brigade neutralized dozens of Hamas operatives over the past day, including by calling in airstrikes, as well as discovered weapons.
