Forces of the 188th Brigade Combat Team under the Gaza Division Command are operating in the southern Gaza Strip - east of the Yellow Line - to clear the area of terrorist infrastructure.
During the operation, the forces - in cooperation with the Yahalam unit - destroyed four underground tunnels with a total length of approximately four kilometers.
One of the hostages was part of a group of hostages who were used as a base for holding hostages.
Additionally, sleeping quarters were located in the corridors that were used by the senior echelons of the Khan Yunis Brigade of the Hamas terrorist organization.
