Tel Aviv [Israel], July 16 (ANI/TPS): In a special operation, Israeli troops have completed the opening of the “Magen Oz” corridor in the Khan Yunis area of southern Gaza, the Israel Defense Forces announced Wednesday.
The approximately 15-kilometer corridor runs between eastern and western Khan Yunis and is designed to intensify pressure on Hamas’ Khan Yunis Brigade.
In recent weeks, Israeli forces operating in the Khan Yunis area have eliminated terrorists and dismantled terror infrastructure, including weapons stockpiles and underground tunnel networks.
Hamas’ October 7 attacks on Israeli communities near the Gaza border left at least 1,180 people dead and resulted in 252 Israelis and foreigners being taken hostage. Of the 50 remaining hostages, around 30 are believed to have died. (ANI/TPS)
