The Israeli army announced on Wednesday that its forces had attacked over 11,000 militant targets in the Gaza Strip since the start of the ongoing war with Hamas.
In a statement, the Israeli military stated, “Since the beginning of the war, the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) has struck over 11,000 targets belonging to terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip”.
In recent days, intense confrontations have erupted between Israeli ground troops and militants in Gaza, as Israel presses its mission to crush Hamas after it went on a rampage on October 7, killing 1,400 people, largely civilians, including women, children, and the elderly.
Since then, Israel has responded with an unrelenting aerial bombardment, according to the health ministry in Hamas-controlled Gaza, which has killed over 8,500 Palestinians, two-thirds of whom are women and children.
Israelis are also subjected to daily aerial strikes from Hamas and other Iran-backed factions across the Middle East.
On Tuesday, Yemen’s Huthi rebels claimed to have launched a large batch of ballistic missiles… and a large number of armed aircraft towards Israel.
According to Israel’s Army, a hostile aircraft intrusion triggered warning sirens near Eilat, and a surface-to-surface missile was successfully intercepted.
In the north, Israel has been exchanging fire on a daily basis with Lebanon’s Iran-backed Hezbollah militia.
