The soldiers of the 646th Brigade are operating in the Abasan area in Khan Yunis, eliminating terrorists, operating and clearing terrorist infrastructure, as well as uncovering and neutralizing underground routes.
This week, the soldiers began an operation in the Abasan al-Saghira area, during which they located weapons, phones, grenades, cartridges, uniforms and combat documents of the Hamas terrorist organization.

During the operation, a humanitarian corridor was set up to evacuate the civilian population from a shelter in the area, through which thousands were evacuated. The shelter was used by Hamas, which cynically exploited the civilian population as a cover for its terrorism.
