Israeli forces took control of a Hamas compound in the Gaza Strip, as the military continued its bombardment of the enclave overnight, the Israel Defense Forces said Monday.
The Hamas compound included a web of “underground terror tunnels,” as well as training areas and observation posts, the military said in a post on Telegram. Israel did not disclose the location of the compound. ABC News was not immediately able to verify IDF’s claims.
“During the operation, several Hamas terrorists were killed,” Israel said.
Israeli munitions struck “in the last day” at least 450 other sites throughout Gaza, “including tunnels, terrorists, military compounds, observation posts, anti-tank missile launch posts and more,” IDF officials said.
“Moreover, IDF naval soldiers struck command centers, anti-tank launch posts and additional observation posts belonging to the Hamas terrorist organization,” IDF officials said in the post.
