In Rafah, located in the southern part of Gaza, Israeli forces have extended their operational reach. This strategic effort is intended to reduce the influence and movement of Hamas and other militant groups in the region. Rafah, a key border town, is often used for smuggling and as a base for militant activities, making it a primary target in Israel’s ongoing military campaign.
At the same time, in the northern district of Shejaiya, the IDF is increasing its efforts to remove entrenched Hamas operatives and other terrorist elements. Shejaiya has long been a Hamas stronghold, and recent operations are part of a larger strategy to prevent militants from re-establishing their presence there. The IDF’s actions in Shejaiya include targeted strikes and ground operations aimed at disrupting the operational capabilities of these groups.
