Since the beginning of the war, the IDF has struck over 15,000 terror targets in Gaza and located 6,000 weapons, including anti-tank missile launchers, anti-aircraft missiles, rockets and mortars, explosives, ammunition, and more.

In recent days, joint IDF forces have continued to strike numerous terrorist targets in Gaza, including operational command centers, terror and rocket infrastructure, weapons and logistics depots, launch posts, terror tunnels, numerous Hamas terrorists, as well as command, control, and intelligence targets.

The coordination between aerial, naval, and ground forces continues, as hundreds of targets, guided by intelligence and infantry, are struck in short timeframes by the IAF and Israeli Navy.

Yesterday (Thursday), the “Yahalom” (Patriot) system intercepted a hostile UAV before it crossed into Israeli territory, near the city of Eilat. This interception is one of many carried out by the Aerial Defense Array during the war.
