The 252nd "Sinai" Division is an Israel Defense Forces reserve division under the Southern Command. Formed in 1968, it was the first permanent division in the IDF.

Division 252 played an active role in the 2023-2024 Israel-Hamas War. The IDF said that "the 252nd Division has killed hundreds of Hamas operatives, including senior members, in Beit Hanoun and Jabaliya."[1]

Division 252 has been accused of arbitrary killings of civilians by Haaretz. The current commander Yehuda Vach was reported to have claimed that "there are no innocents in Gaza" in the same article.[2]
