Positions for launching anti tank missiles and command and control centres were also hit and the military says it has killed a senior hamas commander who helped organise the 7th october attacks. The army said all israeli troops exited the area with no injuries. This is the second ground incursion in as many days. Many are asking when a wider Ground Attack will take place.
