Hamas says 80 people killed in overnight strikes on Gaza
The Hamas terror group claims that some 80 people were killed in overnight Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip.
A statement from Hamas says “more than 80 people were martyred and hundreds wounded in massacres committed by the occupation raids” overnight.
The toll cannot be verified and Hamas does not differentiate between terrorists and civilians. The IDF says it is striking Hamas targets across the Strip after the October 7 assault on Israel that killed some 1,400 people, most of them civilians.
