IDF forces destroy Hamas launcher pointed at Israeli towns, kill fighters in north Gaza

Troops of the Kfir Brigade operating in northern Gaza’s Beit Lahiya have discovered and demolished a Hamas rocket launcher primed for an attack on Israeli border communities, the military says.

The IDF says the soldiers also killed several gunmen who were holed up in a building in the area. The building, which the military says served as a command center for the terror operatives, was later demolished.

The Kfir Brigade has been operating in the Beit Lahiya area, close to Jabalia, amid an ongoing operation against Hamas in northern Gaza. Yesterday, four soldiers of the brigade were killed during the fighting.
