Israeli military: Troops killed over 20 militants in Gaza's Khan Younis

The Israeli military said on Thursday that its troops killed more than 20 Palestinian militants in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis and apprehended dozens of suspected militants over the past day.

Two of those apprehended were suspected of participating in Hamas' Oct. 7 attack on Israel, it said.

The military has made similar claims throughout the fighting in Khan Younis, which could not be independently verified.
