Zionist Occupation’s Jets, Tanks Launch Fresh Attacks against Gaza Strip

International

Israeli military aircraft and battle tanks have carried out a series of attacks on the besieged Gaza Strip amid rising tensions in the occupied territories over US President Donald Trump’s decision to recognize the occupied al-Quds as the “capital” of Israel despite widespread international opposition to the measure, Press TV reported.

The Israeli assaults hit positions belonging to the Palestinian movement, Hamas, east of Tuffah district of Gaza City, on Friday afternoon.

 Spokesman for the Gaza Ministry of Health, Ashraf al-Qidra, said in a statement that nobody was injured by the Israeli fire.

The Israeli army claimed that Palestinian fighters had fired three rockets at occupied lands, two of which were intercepted by Israel’s Iron Dome missile system.

Police said the third rocket hit a structure in a community near Gaza, causing damage but no casualties.

The Gaza Strip has been under an Israeli siege since June 2007. The blockade has caused a decline in living standards as well as unprecedented levels of unemployment and unrelenting poverty.

Under the Israeli blockade, about 1.8 million people in Gaza are deprived of their basic rights, such as freedom of movement, jobs with proper wages as well as adequate healthcare and education.

The Tel Aviv regime has also waged several wars on Gaza since 2008 in which thousands of Gazans have been killed or maimed and a significant portion of infrastructure in the enclave has been destroyed.
