The IDF said on Tuesday that the Hamas terror group had launched several projectiles from the Maghazi area in central Gaza toward Israel, but that the rockets did not cross into Israeli territory, according to Israeli media reports.

The IDF added that one of the rockets hit an Arab school in the central Gaza area of Nuseirat.

“The Hamas terrorist organization’s rocket fire continues to endanger both Israeli and Gazan civilians alike,” the IDF said.

The IDF added that it has over the past day carried out operations in the area of Khan Yunis in southern Gaza, eliminating terrorists in tank and aerial strikes.

It also said that Israeli aircraft had hit over 50 terror infrastructure sites, including storage facilities for weapons, lookout posts, and underground tunnels.

Troops also eliminated numerous terrorists in Rafah through targeted aerial strikes and close-quarters combat, the IDF said.

In addition to IDF activity in Gaza, an Israeli drone strike in the Samaria city of Tulkarem on Tuesday morning killed five terrorists, including two senior Hamas and Fatah operatives, according to Israeli and Palestinian media reports.

Among the dead are Ashraf Nafeh, the commander of the local arm of Hamas’ Qassam Brigades, and Muhammad Abu Abdo, commander of Fatah’s al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades.

Earlier this month, an IDF soldier was killed and another seriously wounded by Palestinian terrorists in the Nur Shams camp, east of Tulkarem.
