Israel Air Force Strikes Multi-Story Buildings in Response to Gaza Rocket Fire


(Ynet News) Yoav Zitun - The Israel Air Force "struck four multi-story buildings that Hamas uses for terror activity. We attacked the buildings in an orderly manner after the inhabitants have been evacuated," IDF Spokesperson Brig.-Gen. Ronen Manelis said. The IDF attacked the Gaza City headquarters of Hamas' Al Aqsa TV station on Monday. Israel had fired warning shots ahead of the airstrike, prompting the station to halt programming. Minutes later, an airstrike flattened the three-story building. "The station broadcasts violent propaganda against the State of Israel and its citizens, as well as operational messaging to militants, which include methods for carrying out attacks against civilians and soldiers and ways to obtain weapons," the IDF said. Israel also hit Hamas' internal security headquarters at the Al-Amal Hotel and Hamas' military intelligence force for research and development, located in a high-rise structure. The air force also hit a terror cell launching rockets in northern Gaza.
