The IDF's 36th Division is advancing in southern Gaza's Khan Younis

The IDF's 36th Division is advancing in southern Gaza's Khan Younis, as part of a new offensive against Hamas, the military announces.

In a statement, the IDF says the division recently completed its operations in Rafah, and is now pushing into new areas in Khan Younis.

The division had established the so-called Morag Corridor between Rafah and Khan Younis in recent weeks.

In the past week, the IDF says the division's forces killed dozens of terror operatives and destroyed hundreds of infrastructures, including observation posts and tunnels.
