IDF troops find Hamas weapons cache hidden in Gaza City school-turned-shelter

In a school serving as a shelter in Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, troops of the 401st Armored Brigade and Navy’s Shayetet 13 commando unit battled Hamas gunmen and found a cache of weapons, the IDF says.

The IDF says the forces raided the school after receiving intelligence of Hamas operatives in the area, killing many of them in the process, while dozens of others surrendered.

“After we evacuated the [civilian] population, we found in the complex many weapons, hidden between the civilians’ equipment,” says a Shayetet 13 deputy company commander in a video, showing assault rifles, grenades and other explosive devices found in the school.

The IDF says dozens of Hamas fighters who surrendered and were interrogated by officers of the Intelligence Directorate’s Unit 504 at the scene were taken to Israel for further questioning.
