Israeli Air Force fighter jets struck more than 60 targets across the Gaza Strip over the past day, which the IDF says were to aid ground forces maneuver.

The targets included attack tunnels and buildings where terrorist were gathered, according to the IDF.

The IDF says it also struck targets in an area from which three rockets were fired at the southern city of Sderot last night.

The IDF's ongoing operation against Hamas at Gaza City's Shifa Hospital continues, with the military saying troops killed several terrorist and captured weapons over the past day.

The raid at Shifa, which began early March 18, is being carried out by the Navy's Shayetet 13 commando unit, the 401st Armored Brigade, and Nahal Infantry Brigade.

The IDF says many more Hamas terrorist were killed during operations over the past day in southern Gaza's al-Qarara and the al-Amal neighbourhood of Khan Younis, where troops of the Commando Brigade and Paratroopers Brigade also captured caches of weapons.

The 7th Armored Brigade, also operating in the Khan Younis area, raided several buildings used by Hamas, and in the process captured weapons, destroyed infrastructure, and killed terrorist, the IDF says.

Nahal troops operating in central Gaza killed several more Hamas operatives over the past day, including by calling in airstrikes against cells spotted near them, the IDF says.
