As IDF soldiers continued to operate in west Khan Yunis and push forward their offensive, the soldiers of the 7th Armored Brigade killed over 30 terrorists in clashes in the city, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit said Tuesday morning.
Paratroopers killed terrorists who attempted to hide themselves among the civilian population, and soldiers in the 414 Nesher Intelligence Battalion identified and killed terrorists carrying explosives on motorcycles.
When one of the terrorists was spotted pointing a gun at an IDF vehicle, the soldiers reacted immediately and killed the terrorist.

The combat soldiers in the 7th Armored Brigade continued deeper into Khan Yunis, increasing the operational control of the area, carrying out raids on terrorist infrastructures, and performing sniper ambushes and patrols.
The firepower of the 98th Division’s firepower targeted attacks at two ammunition warehouses located within terrorist homes.
