Meanwhile, the Israeli Army claims that troops from the Nahal Brigade spotted a group of Hamas operatives heading to a building near them in the Gaza Strip and called for an airstrike. The building was also used as a weapons depot and was destroyed in the airstrike, the IDF says.
In recent hours, the Israeli army has been “expanding” its operations in the Gaza Strip, reports AFP. Israel warned residents of Gaza’s largest refugee camp, Jabalia, and a nearby coastal camp to evacuate, while the military said Sunday it was “expanding its operational activities to additional areas” of Gaza.
