The IDF confirms striking two more high-rise towers in Gaza City a short while ago, after issuing evacuation warnings for Palestinian civilians in the vicinity.

According to the military, Hamas had placed surveillance equipment and set up observation posts in the Mahna Tower and a building on the Islamic University campus, in order to track troop movements and advance attacks.

The military says Hamas operatives “prepared to carry out attacks against IDF troops in the area of one of the buildings that was struck.”
