IDF: Eliminating terrorists, destroying an underground tunnel route and locating weapons: the 646th Reserve Brigade combat team in the Gaza Strip
The 646th Reserve Brigade has been fighting in the Gaza Strip during the past few months. During their activities, the combat soldiers eliminated many terrorists, located weapons and destroyed a strategic underground tunnel route of the Hamas terrorist organization that crosses through the Gaza Strip from north to south.
With the beginning of the ground operation, the brigade combat team operated on terror targets in the area of the central camps, in Bureij, Nuseirat and the “Towers” neighborhood belonging to Hamas operatives. At the end of their mission in the central camps, they continued to operate in the southern Gaza Strip in the Khan Yunis area. In their activity, they completed an operation in the “Abasan” area, in which they eliminated a large number of terrorists and located and confiscated large quantities of weapons. During the operation dozens of terrorists who hid within the civilian population were detained.
The brigade completed its mission in the Gaza Strip last week.
The Commanding Officer of the 646th Brigade, COL Elad Shushan: “We reached every hideout above and below ground in the Gaza Strip, and today the terrorists know that there is no safe hiding place, and that their fate is sealed. It is our duty to embrace and support the bereaved families and the injured, and to accompany them forward. Dear soldiers, I am proud of you for the strength of spirit and resilience you have shown. I am sure that this is what our fallen would expect from us. We will continue with all our might. The mission is not yet complete, and I have no doubt that the brigade will stand ready whenever and wherever required.”

IDF: Weapons located in the compound of a UN school are further evidence of Hamas’ exploitation of the Gazan civilian population for its terrorist activities
During an operation last week, the Paratrooper Brigade combat team located large quantities of weapons inside a building adjacent to a UN school in Khan Yunis. The school had been used as a humanitarian shelter for Gazan residents. The weapons found by the IDF include AK-47s, warheads, grenades, RPGs and ammunition. The terrorists used a gap in the school wall as a passage to the adjacent building, from which they took their weapons to use in attacks on IDF soldiers.
In parallel, the soldiers worked to evacuate the civilian population from the combat zone for their safety. Approximately 60 terrorists who were hiding among the civilian population and tried to take advantage of the evacuation process to escape, were detained by the IDF. The terrorists were taken for further investigation by the security forces in Israel. This is further evidence of Hamas’ cynical use of the civilian population for terrorist activities.
In another nearby building, the soldiers located weapons, ammunition, cartridges, vests and Hamas uniforms. In addition, the soldiers raided the residence of the Head of the Anti-Tank Array of the Khan Yunis Brigade, where they found many weapons and intelligence materials.
The Paratrooper Brigade combat team is continuing to intensify the fighting in western Khan Yunis. The soldiers are operating against terrorist targets and eliminating many terrorists in close-quarters battles and with accurate sniper fire.
