The IDF’s Kfir Brigade, under the command of the 162nd Division, has completed its mission in northern Gaza after three months of combat in the area.
During the mission, the troops eliminated numerous terrorists in airstrikes and close-quarters combat, some of whom participated in the October 7th massacre. They also located weapons, destroyed underground tunnel routes, and dismantled Hamas’ terrorist infrastructure.
The soldiers searched out and fought terrorists in multiple areas that posed a threat to IDF activity and Israeli border communities, including the area around Beit Lahiya and the terrorist stronghold of Beit Hanoun.
Since the beginning of the war, Kfir Brigade troops have operated in Gaza, southern Lebanon, and carried out counterterrorism operations in Judea and Samaria.
Although Kfir troops are now preparing for new missions, the forces of the 162nd Division are continuing their operations in northern Gaza for the time being.
