Fierce battles continue to be fought from civilian and underground infrastructures: fighters of the Golani Brigade's combat team and its commanders have been fighting for about a week deep in the Shejaiya area of Gaza City. In recent days, the brigade has been under attack on terrorist infrastructure in the Kasbah of Shejaiya. Meanwhile, the IDF released new footage Wednesday morning from the fierce battle in Sejaiya, the same place where the 9 fighters fell.

The attack is an advanced stage in the effort to cleanse the neighborhood. The IDF notes that the Kasbah is a crowded and complex space for maneuvering, Hamas terrorists operate from civilian infrastructure, and the neighborhood is saturated with underground.
As part of the attack, fighters of the brigade combat team encountered terrorists who threw IEDs at the force and fired at them from a residential building with underground inside. "The commanders on the ground showed courage and composure, commanded from the front and jumped to assist and rescue the wounded fighters."
