IDF: IDF is conducting security measures on the Gaza shore for the US JLOTS in preparation for delivery of humanitarian aid
The IDF has begun securing the coastal area of the U.S. military’s Joint Logistics Over-the-Shore (JLOTS) capability – in Gaza. The pier’s reestablishment will allow for the continued delivery of humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza in the coming days.
IDF troops are continuing intelligence-based, targeted operations in the Rafah area, locating large amounts of weaponry and terror tunnel shafts. In one activity, the troops conducted a targeted raid on a military compound used by the Tal as-Sultan Battal
ion to train Hamas terrorists. The troops eliminated terrorists who posed a threat to them and located large amounts of weaponry and terror tunnel shafts.
The IDF is continuing operational activity in eastern Dier al Balah and eastern Bureij. Over the past day, IAF aircraft and IDF ground troops struck dozens of terrorist cells and infrastructures, including an underground terror tunnel that was concealed within a civilian structure. As a result of the strike, secondary explosions were identified, suggesting the presence of a large amount of weaponry in the structure.
Furthermore, the troops struck terrorists in proximity to a terror tunnel shaft, and as a result, ready-to-use rockets were launched and fell in proximity to another terror tunnel shaft within the Gaza Strip. No IDF injuries were reported.
During IDF activity in the central Gaza Strip, IAF fighter jets eliminated a terrorist cell that fired mortars at the troops in the area over the past week. No IDF injuries were reported.

As part of the effort to provide humanitarian aid to the residents of the Gaza Strip, the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) announced today (Saturday) the establishment of the 11th field hospital in Gaza. This in cooperation with the international community, facilitated by the RAHMA Organization, and coordinated with the IDF and COGAT. The field hospital compound has recently begun operating in the Al-Mawasi area, within the Humanitarian Area in Khan Yunis.
The establishment of the hospital was coordinated and facilitated by bringing in medical teams and equipment, which includes medications, beds, food, water, tents, first aid supplies, ventilators and equipment to set up the compound. These were brought in through the Kerem Shalom Crossing after security checks. The field hospital, the seventh to be established in Al-Mawasi, will be operated by the Red Crescent Organization and is expected to include 40 beds, 3 operating rooms, and an intensive care unit.
The IDF, via COGAT, will continue to act in accordance with international law to provide humanitarian aid to the residents of the Gaza Strip across all areas, focusing on the medical field.
