After five months of intense operational activity in the Golan Heights sector and inside Syrian territory, the soldiers of the Paratroopers Brigade have completed their mission on the northern border and are now preparing for new assignments in the Gaza Strip, the IDF Spokesperson announced today (Sunday).
The brigade, which operates under the 98th Division, will redeploy to the south as part of preparations for expanding the ground maneuver in Gaza.

As the Paratroopers Brigade prepares to leave the north, it is also getting ready for additional operations in the Gaza Strip, as part of the expanding ground campaign. Within the framework of the 98th Division, the brigade will play an active role in the southern operational effort, with the goal of enhancing force readiness in the fight against the terror groups operating in the Strip.
According to the IDF Spokesperson, operational activity will continue across all fronts to protect the citizens of Israel. The reservist forces stationed on the northern border will carry on with security missions in Syria to help ensure quiet in the region.
