Yesterday morning, IDF troops captured a post belonging to the commander of the northern region of the PIJ. The post was a major asset for weapon production.

IDF troops searched the post and removed two trucks full of weapons, including Badr-3 rocket parts (a surface-to-surface rocket), UAV parts, and intelligence materials belonging to the PIJ.

The post was used for weapon production intended to attack Israeli civilians and also contained a training tank, used by the terrorists for training to capture an IDF tank.

During the operation, an anti-tank missile was launched at the troops from an adjacent building. The troops directed a helicopter to strike the terrorist cell that launched the missile.

Furthermore, a terrorist cell fired additional shots at the troops from an adjacent courthouse and was struck by an IDF tank.

The post was located adjacent to a courthouse in Gaza and a Turkish hospital.

The operation took 12 hours and as it ended the troops destroyed the post.
