IDF: IDF troops are operating in the Al-Shati Camp in the Gaza Strip; IDF killed numerous terrorists in several different battles

Over the past day, IDF soldiers began operating in the Al-Shati Camp in the northern Gaza Strip. During the operational activity, the soldiers killed numerous terrorists and uncovered a large number of terrorist infrastructure in the area.

During one of the battles with the terrorists, IDF troops identified civilians who were located in a building in the area. The IDF secured an evacuation route for the civilians, and as the civilians were evacuating, terrorists fired at the troops from the outskirts of the area. In order to protect the evacuation route, IDF troops responded with light weapons fire and tanks to kill the terrorists.

In another engagement, IDF troops identified a terrorist cell barricaded inside a house in the area and posed a threat to the forces. IDF troops directed an aircraft and fired at the terrorists, killing the terrorists. In addition, following an identification of an anti-tank missile launched from a weapons storage facility inside a building, a fighter jet struck the source of the fire.

Yesterday, IDF troops operated in the northern Gaza Strip and identified four terrorists in their vicinity. The troops directed a UAV to the area and killed three terrorists. The UAV continued in pursuit of the additional terrorist, who attempted to flee through crowded alleyways and struck him a short while thereafter.

IDF: Thanks to access to quick and efficient intelligence in the field, soldiers of the Golani Brigade eliminated seven terrorists within ten minutes; Dozens of ADANIM (Deployable-level Intel) are operational for the first time and are providing intelligence to forces operating in Gaza

The Center for Defense and Operational Maneuvers is an integrative organization in the Intelligence Directorate tasked with producing, researching and making tactical intelligence accessible to the operational front in order to improve the operational effectiveness of the forces in the field in both defense and offense and lead to quick coordination of firepower combining accurate intelligence and effective firepower. During times of routine, the center focuses on force-building for emergencies, and now for the first time, it is supporting IDF operational activity.

Each division and operating brigade has a back office named ADAN (Deployable-level intel), to integrate and use the variety of sources of gathering and analysis in the Intelligence Directorate and the intelligence community, making the intel accessible to forces in the field.
The operational demand comes from the division and the brigade to ADAN, where a complete response is given. In one office, signal monitors, network intelligence officers, analysts, and researchers sit together with the goal of protecting our forces and eliminating Hamas terrorists.

Attached is an infographic explaining the coordination of firepower that led to the elimination of seven terrorists within ten minutes, by ADAN Golani and the forces in the field: https://IDFANC.activetrail.biz/ANC1211202357201

Another example of quick coordination that took place in the Defense and Operations Center, is the elimination of the commander of the Naser Radwan Company, the terrorist Ahmed Siam. On Friday morning (November 10th, 2023), ADAN Givati received an indication of the unusual presence of Ahmed Siam at a school in northern Gaza. It was revealed that Ahmed Siam held about a thousand residents of the Gaza Strip as hostages and human shields in the Rantisi hospital and prevented them from evacuating to the south of the Gaza Strip. Cross-checking several layers of research with all the sources confirmed his presence above the ground. At noon, he was targeted by an Air Force aircraft using close coordination.

Attached is footage of the elimination of the commander of the Naser Radwan Company, the terrorist Ahmed Siam: https://bit.ly/470JSEN

In the words of the Intelligence Officer of the 401st Brigade, MAJ Y.: "One of the most significant challenges for intelligence on the ground is receiving information available in the Intelligence Directorate across its plethora of units: 8200, 9900, 504 and turning it into knowledge for the soldiers in the field. The ADAN allows us as a division in the field to sharpen that edge. The relationship with the ADAN works effectively since it is an organic part of the brigade, which also routinely trains with the brigade and participates in its combat procedures. In this war, we took this multidisciplinary organization and raised it to a new level - all the intelligence personnel in the field are connected by earpiece to the ADAN personnel, thus succeeding in maintaining close coordination against terrorists. This is expressed in operating firepower or directing a tank in the field towards those terrorists. ADAN 401 is responsible for many terrorists who were killed following that close coordination.”

IDF: The IDF is enabling a passage from the Shifa, Rantisi and Nasser hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip and opened an additional passage to enable the civilian population to evacuate southwards for their safety

Following the repeated calls by the IDF to Gazan residents to evacuate from northern Gaza for their own safety, the IDF is enabling a passage from the Shifa, Rantisi and Nasser hospitals.
