The Israel Defense Forces says it launched massive airstrikes against a neighborhood of Gaza City, targeting more than 100 sites.

The IDF says the neighborhood, dubbed by the army al-Furqan after a mosque in the area, is a “nest of terror” used by Hamas to launch attacks against Israel.

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

Separately, the IDF says it hit an underground tunnel for smuggling weapons and equipment in the Rafah area, on the Egypt-Gaza border.
