Col. Jonathan Conricus told CNN on Tuesday morning that he was “not aware of any strikes specifically in those areas but they could have happened”.“The combat operations continue. We continue to hunt Hamas operatives to attempt to degrade their military capabilities,” Conricus said.

He said the hunt for Hamas targets is part of “the war that has been forced upon us” and Israel will continue military operations “according to the law of armed conflict and of course to minimise civilian casualties”.Meanwhile, the death toll in Gaza since the raging conflict erupted on October 7 stood at 2,778, with 9,938 injured persons.The Palestinian Ministry of Health said that 47 entire families have been killed, amounting to about 500 people.
