The Kfir Brigade last night was withdrawn from the Gaza Strip for a short R&R and training period, and have been replaced with other forces in the Khan Younis area, the military says.

The IDF says that after their short break, the Kfir Brigade will continue operational activity according to the army’s latest assessments.

In Khan Younis, the IDF says Kfir soldiers operated in the Bani Suheila area, locating many weapons used by Hamas, including firearms, explosive devices, grenades, and rockets, as well as killing dozens of terror operatives.

Before fighting in Khan Younis, Kfir operated in Gaza City’s Shejaiya neighborhood, in what was the brigade’s first-ever ground maneuver.
