Israeli Forces Find Explosives Lab in Jabaliya Refugee Camp Apartment
Jerusalem, 4 December, 2024 (TPS-IL) -- Soldiers operating in northern Gaza’s Jabaliya refugee camp found an explosives laboratory inside one of the residential apartments, the Israel Defense Forces said on Wednesday.
Hamas is trying to regroup in northern Gaza. Soldiers are destroying terror infrastructure and eliminating terrorists in airstrikes and close-quarters combat. During one operation, soldiers uncovered a laboratory inside a residential building where terrorists stored production parts and grenades.
In other raids around the camp, Israeli forces seized anti-tank rockets, RPG launchers, combat equipment and military gear.
At least 1,200 people were killed, and 252 Israelis and foreigners were taken hostage in Hamas’s attacks on Israeli communities near the Gaza border on October 7. Of the 97 remaining hostages, more than 30 have been declared dead. Hamas has also been holding captive two Israeli civilians since 2014 and 2015, and the bodies of two soldiers killed in 2014.
