"The 162nd Division is under operational control in Jabalia," said the commander of the 162nd Division, Brigadier General Itzik Cohen. "Jabaliyah is not the Jabaliya it was. The fighting of the division's forces led to the dismantling of the military capability of the northern Gaza City Brigade. Thanks to the maneuver, we are operating in the heart of Gaza City with operational freedom, and the 162nd Division will continue its operations in the Gaza Strip until the mission is completed."
After the fierce battles in which Jabaliya was surrounded from five different directions, it was completely defeated. During the operation in the area, 1000,3500 terrorists and <>,<> prisoners were killed - some of them were waiting for IDF forces and said that "Sinwar threw us out, we will not die for him."

One of the most striking things found in houses in the Jabaliya neighborhood was the shafts found in almost every house. In addition, large quantities of weapons and documents were found, such as maps of the settlements in the envelope with their weak point markings, and more, which dramatically helped the fighting.
