Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor: The Israeli occupation dropped the equivalent to two nuclear bombs on Gaza

The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor confirmed that the Israeli occupation dropped more than 25,000 tons of explosives on the besieged Gaza Strip, i.e., the equivalent to two nuclear bombs, since the start of the Israeli aggression against the Strip on October the 7th.

Palestinian media quoted the Monitor as confirming in a statement today that the Israeli occupation army admitted that its planes bombed more than 12,000 sites in Gaza Strip with a record number of bombs with each weighing more than 10 kilograms of explosives.

The Monitor indicated that the weight of the nuclear bomb that the United States dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan at the end of World War II in August 1945 was estimated at about 15 thousand tons of explosives, while the Israeli occupation has dropped so far on Gaza twice as much as those nuclear bombs.

The Monitor explained that this means that the destructive force of the explosives dropped on Gaza exceeds what was dropped on Hiroshima, noting that the area of the Japanese city is 900 square kilometers, while the area of Gaza does not exceed 360 square kilometers.
