Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) fighters eliminated an armed terrorist group in the south of the Gaza Strip in the city of Khan Yunis, according to the Israel Defense Forces.
It is noted that within the framework of the operation, the Israeli military carried out actions targeting new objectives on the territory of the Gaza Strip, during which ground and underground terrorist infrastructure objects were eliminated. In particular, weapons and military equipment were confiscated.
Also, over the past few days, the Israeli military, in coordination with the Air Force (IAF), eliminated a terrorist group that "approached them and posed a threat."
"Additionally, the troops, together with Yahalom soldiers, discovered and eliminated a large underground tunnel in Khan Yunis approximately one kilometer long," the Israel Defense Forces adds.
Gaza Strip
In January, before Donald Trump assumed the office of President of the United States of America, Israel and Hamas reached an agreement on a ceasefire and the release of hostages. Later, Hamas began to delay the exchange, and Tel Aviv blocked the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, and from March 18 resumed military actions.
In mid-May, the delivery of humanitarian aid was unblocked, and at the end of the month, the White House stated that Israel had agreed to the draft peace agreement of Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff.
