B’chasdei hashem, Israeli ground troops have successfully taken control of the Gazan side of Rafah Crossing, which is 3.5 km from the border.
This has resulted in the disconnection of the crossing from the Salah a-Din road in eastern Rafah.
During the operation, at least 20 Hamas militants were killed, and the Air Force detected three large terror tunnel shafts while simultaneously striking around 50 targets.
No Israeli soldiers have been injured in the operation thus far.
