IDF says Netzah Yehuda Battalion carrying out new pinpoint operation in north Gaza’s Beit Hanoun
The IDF launched a new pinpoint operation in northern Gaza’s Beit Hanoun just before Passover began yesterday. The raid is being carried out by the Kfir Brigade’s Netzah Yehuda Battalion, alongside other forces under the Gaza Division’s Northern Brigade.
The unit, made up of ultra-Orthodox troops, had previously been permanently stationed in the West Bank, where it was at the center of several controversies connected to right-wing extremism and violence against Palestinians. As a result of those past incidents, the United States is planning to blacklist the unit.
This marks the fourth operation carried out by the Netzah Yehuda Battalion in Gaza amid the war.
