In a massive military operation, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that its air force struck more than 90 Hamas terror targets across the Gaza Strip in the past 48 hours.
This large-scale assault targeted several key areas used by Hamas militants for launching attacks on Israel. The offensive follows a recent rocket attack into Israeli territory, which prompted the military response.
Key Targets Hit by IDF:
- Rocket Launch Site: The location from which rockets were fired into Israel was neutralized.
- Weapons Depots & Terrorist Cells: Several arms storage facilities and active militant units were bombed.
- Command & Control Center: A major Hamas compound in Darg Tufah, used for operational planning, was destroyed. The site also held explosives and charges.
- Northern Gaza: Forces eliminated multiple terrorists attempting to plant improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and destroyed military tunnels and structures.
- Tel Sultan & Shabura Areas: Troops located and dismantled mines, terrorist hideouts, and weapon stockpiles.
IDF Official Statement:
“Our forces targeted critical Hamas infrastructure and eliminated militants who posed a direct threat. This is part of our ongoing effort to ensure the safety of Israeli civilians.”
What It Means:
This round of airstrikes is a clear escalation in the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, aiming to degrade Hamas’ capabilities to launch coordinated attacks and use underground networks.
The IDF emphasized its commitment to minimizing civilian harm while strategically dismantling terror threats. Operations are expected to continue as long as threats persist.
