The Israeli military says warplanes destroyed a Hamas aerial reconnaissance system during airstrikes in the Gaza Strip. The radar system was hidden in water containers on roofs throughout the area.
“Fighters destroyed a sophisticated radar system developed by the terrorist organization Hamas that was used to detect rockets over the Gaza Strip,” the armed forces said on Wednesday (see X-Post below). The high-quality camera network that Hamas has developed over the years has now been destroyed within minutes with attacks on various targets.
All signal detection devices attacked
This took away Hamas’ ability to “create a broad view of the sky for the purpose of attacking rockets,” the Israeli military said. All signal detection devices in the system were attacked.
Hundreds of air raids
At least thirty people were killed in Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip on Wednesday night, according to the radical Islamic group Hamas. The Hamas government, which rules Gaza, said hundreds of people were also injured. There were several hundred Israeli airstrikes that night. Dozens of homes, factories, mosques and shops were hit.
The Hamas-affiliated Islamic University in Gaza was also bombed on Wednesday. According to a university spokesperson, several buildings in the complex have been destroyed. The Israeli forces in turn confirmed new retaliatory attacks on the Gaza Strip. Warplanes overnight hit more than 200 targets in a neighborhood of Gaza City that Hamas used for its wave of attacks on Saturday.
260,000 Inland Flights
The number of Palestinians killed in Israeli airstrikes rose to at least 950 on Wednesday. The Health Ministry in Gaza said around 5,000 more people were injured. According to the UN, more than 260,000 people have fled their homes since the Israeli counterattack began. The UN Office for Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) in Geneva assumes that this number is likely to rise.
The number of internally displaced people in the Gaza Strip is the highest since 2014, the UN agency said. Nearly 175,000 affected people took shelter in 88 UN-run schools. According to information, approximately 14,500 additional people were housed in schools run by the Hamas government. About 74,000 refugees were hosted by family or friends.
