IDF Arabic spokesman Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee said on Saturday that "the fear barrier has been broken—hundreds are fleeing Jabaliya."
He detailed that, during a joint IDF and Shin Bet operation in northern Gaza, 460th Brigade forces, under the command of the 162nd Division, engaged terrorists, prompting the evacuation of hundreds of civilians from the area.
Adraee added that the IDF provided safe passage through organized routes, and several terrorists were arrested, including one found with weapon magazines and another carrying a letter expressing his desire to die as a martyr.
