IDF: Armed Terrorists Attempted to Take Over Humanitarian Trucks

The soldiers of the Nahal Brigade Combat Team, under the command of the 162nd Division, have been conducting precise, intelligence-based, targeted operational activity for about two months in the Rafah area.
During their activity, the troops completed 4 brigade-level operations, operated against Hamas terrorist organization targets, eliminated over 150 terrorists who posed a threat to the troops and located approximately 400 different weapons.

The brigade-level operations involved operating in four different areas in Rafah:

In the south of the ‘Brazil’ area, the troops destroyed a significant underground tunnel route hundreds of meters long that included several floors and levels.

In the north of the ‘Yibna’ refugee camp, the troops carried out a targeted operation during which they eliminated terrorists and located weapon storage facilities in the area.

In the center of the ‘Brazil’ area and the ‘Alshaboura’ refugee camp, the troops deepened the operational achievement and located: workshops both above and below the ground, rockets in sensitive locations and tunnel shafts leading to terror tunnels.

In their most recent operation, the troops raided a school near the humanitarian route where armed terrorists who tried to take over the route were entrenched.
The troops directed drones that located and eliminated the armed terrorists on the route. In the school yard, they located an operational tunnel shaft used by the terrorists.
