The IDF Spokesperson announced that the IDF is in the midst of Operation 'Gideon's Chariots' and is operating throughout the Gaza Strip, emphasizing that 'following recent publications, there is no change in the situation.' His statement was issued following a report by Saudi network Al-Arabiya, which claimed that 'a special Israeli force entered central Khan Yunis to carry out a hostage rescue mission.' The report has not been verified.
