The discovery was made during routine operations in a combat zone where threats to IDF troops remain high. The terrorists posed an immediate danger due to their close proximity and the heavy weapons in their possession.

Acting quickly, the IDF closed the operational loop. An Israeli Air Force aircraft, directed by ground forces and supported by the Nahal Brigade's firepower, launched a series of precision airstrikes.

The attack successfully eliminated the terrorist cell without any harm to Israeli forces, demonstrating the effectiveness of real-time coordination between air and ground units.
