The Israeli military confirms it has launched a new pinpoint raid in Gaza City's Zeitoun neighborhood overnight, which it says is aimed at "the continued dismantling of terror infrastructure and eliminating terrorists in the area."
Ahead of the raid carried out by the 99th Division, the Israeli Air Force struck some 25 sites in the area, including buildings used by terror groups, attack tunnels, observation posts, sniper positions, and other infrastructure, the IDF says.
The military says troops of the Nahal Brigade, Yiftah Brigade, and Carmeli Brigade then entered the neighborhood and are working to clear it of Hamas infrastructure.
The IDF first operated in Zeitoun at the start of Israel's ground offensive in Gaza last year. It launched another two-week-long raid in the Gaza City neighborhood in late February.

Defense Minister Yoav Gallant vows that Israel "will achieve our goals in the north and south," in a message to both the country's "enemies and best friends."
The comments come after US President Joe Biden threatened that some arms shipments would be frozen if Israel launches a planned offensive in southern Gaza's Rafah.
"I say from here to Israel's enemies and its best friends, the State of Israel cannot be subdued, not the IDF, not the Defense Ministry, not the defense establishment, not the State of Israel. We will stand, we will achieve our goals, we will hit Hamas, we will destroy Hezbollah, and we will bring security," Gallant says during a ceremony ahead of Israel's Memorial Day.
"Whatever the cost, we will ensure the existence of the State of Israel and remember well the directive we signed just a week ago during the Holocaust Remembrance Day ceremony, the words 'Never Again.' For me, it's not just a directive, it's a work plan, this is how the defense establishment will work and this is how the IDF will work," he adds.
