The military attacked more than 150 terrorist targets across the Gaza Strip in the past 24 hours as part of operations against Hamas and other factions, the Israel Defense Forces said on Friday.

Airstrikes targeted anti-tank positions, terrorist cells, and structures used to launch attacks on Israeli troops, the IDF said. Ground forces from the 252nd, 143rd and 36th Divisions operated in northern and southern Gaza, destroying tunnel shafts and “military” infrastructure, and killing terrorists engaged in active combat and plotting attacks.

The operations are being conducted under the direction of the Military Intelligence Directorate, the IDF Southern Command and the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet).

Israel sees the move as a long-term strategic step, implementation due to begin in the coming days.
