The Israeli army announced that its ground forces continue their operations in the northern part of the Gaza Strip. According to 'The Times of Israel' on Sunday, the Israeli army states that during its ongoing operations, it killed several armed Hamas members and destroyed a number of Hamas facilities. The report indicates that the Israeli army claims to have killed several members of the Palestinian group Hamas who were shooting at Israeli ground forces in the Gaza Strip. Several Palestinian armed individuals were also identified and killed on the Gaza coast near southern Israel. According to the Israeli army, ground forces attacked sites for launching guided anti-tank missiles, observation posts, and other Hamas infrastructure, including using tanks. The Israeli army also stated that it directed the Israeli Air Force in several attacks on buildings used by Hamas. Following the recent attack by Hamas and the Islamic Jihad group on Israel, which resulted in the deaths of about 1,400 people in Israel, the country has launched operations in Gaza, which some experts say aim to end Hamas's governance and organizational existence in Gaza.
