IDF Northern Brigade troops operating under Division 99, together with the Yahalom combat-engineering unit, dismantled an approximately one-kilometer underground route in northern Gaza in recent weeks. The military said the forces have neutralized more than 26 kilometers of underground routes and infrastructure east of the Yellow Line since the ceasefire began. It said the operation is intended to clear terrorist infrastructure and immediate threats from the area. Southern Command forces remain deployed there under the ceasefire framework, and the IDF said troops will continue acting to remove immediate threats.
