IAF hits 200 targets in Gaza City ‘terror nest’

The Israel Defense Forces says it launched massive airstrikes in the Gaza Strip, hitting more than 200 targets over the past day in a coastal neighborhood of Gaza City.

The military says targets were taken out in al-Furqan, dubbed after a mosque in the area in the city.

The IDF says the attacks overnight are the third aerial assault in al-Furqan over the past 24 hours. The area was labeled a “nest of terror” used by Hamas to launch attacks against Israel.

In the three attacks, the military says some 450 targets were hit in total so far.

Dozens of fighter jets participated in the strikes, the IDF adds.

Earlier, the military said jets struck over 70 Hamas targets in the Gaza City district of At-Tuffah, in the northeast of the city.
