The IDF reports on the progress of operations in Shejaiya. IDF forces from the 98th Division have re-entered the area east of Gaza City, where a military operation took place in November-December 2023. The operation was initiated based on intelligence indicating the return of terrorists to the area.
The operation in Shejaiya involves troops from the 7th "Saar me-Golan" Armored Brigade and the "Tzanhanim" Brigade. Concurrently, the Israeli Air Force targeted dozens of locations in the area, including groups of terrorists sheltering in schools and UNRWA facilities.
The IDF statement also mentions airstrikes conducted by the Israeli Air Force overnight on June 28 in the Deir al-Balah area, located in central Gaza. Before the strike, the IDF evacuated the population, conducted aerial surveillance, and used a precise munition.
