One soldier seriously wounded, 60 terrorists killed in Jabalya, Gaza
2024-05-17
[Jpost] One soldier was wounded and is in serious condition after an encounter with terrorists in Jabalya, in the northern Gaza Strip, the military announced on Friday.

This comes after the IDF reported ramping up operations in Jabalya and Rafah, intensifying operational control, and striking terror targets.

Israel Air Force fighter jets struck weapons facilities and eliminated terrorists who launched mortar shells at IDF troops.

The IAF struck several military structures in Gaza, as well as terror cells, anti-tank positions, and additional terrorist infrastructure.

ELIMINATING TERRORISTS EN MASSE
In continued operations in the Gaza Strip, the 7th Brigade successfully eliminated more than 60 terrorists over the previous days in Jabalya, leading to continued fighting in the city center, the IDF added.

The groups of terrorists were eliminated both via ground operations and airstrikes. Meanwhile, firefights continued throughout the city.

The 101st battalion uncovered a weapons warehouse that hosted dozens of long-range rockets. They also uncovered rocket parts, explosives, and other weapons.

The warehouse was found just 10 meters away from a shelter complex, the IDF noted. Numerous terrorists were hiding in the complex, and the IDF subsequently arrested at least 20.
