Authorities in Hamas-ruled Gaza reported dozens of new air strikes in the central region where most Israeli troops have regrouped in recent days.Israel’s military said its aircraft had struck more than 60 militant targets in Gaza over the previous day. The latest bombardments in Gaza came after Israel said it had strengthened air defences and paused leave for combat units, following a deadly April 1 air strike that destroyed Iran’s consulate building in Damascus.
After meeting Kurilla yesterday, Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said Israel and the United States stood “shoulder to shoulder”, despite recent differences over the conduct of the war in Gaza. But he added that it felt it had no choice but to respond to the deadly attack on its diplomatic mission after the UN Security Council failed to take action.
In their October attack, Hamas seized about 250 hostages, 129 of whom remain in Gaza, including 34 the Israeli army says are dead.
