The Israel Defense Forces says fighter jets struck over 250 sites belonging to the Hamas terror in the Gaza Strip over the past day.
The sites included Hamas infrastructure, command centers, tunnels, and rocket launchers, according to the IDF.
The IDF says the rocket launchers were “placed in the heart of civilian areas that fired toward Israeli territory throughout the war.”
Separately, the IDF says Navy forces struck a Hamas surface-to-air missile launch position in Khan Younis.
The IDF says the missile launch site is “located adjacent to a mosque and kindergarten, which is further proof that Hamas deliberately uses civilian sites for terror purposes.”
