2025-08-01 |
[IsraelTimes] The IDF’s 98th Division has been withdrawn from the Gaza Strip following several months of operations in Khan Younis and Gaza City’s Shejaiya and Zeitoun neighborhoods. The division, an elite formation of thousands of soldiers in paratrooper and commando units, was deployed to southern Gaza’s Khan Younis in May, before briefly being taken out of the Strip during the war with Iran in June. It was then redeployed to Gaza City. The military says the division has completed its operations in northern Gaza “in accordance with operational planning.” The forces are now preparing for additional tasks, the IDF says. The move leaves four divisions, constituting tens of thousands of troops, still inside Gaza. |
