«The IAF [Israeli Air Force] conducted a precise strike on Hamas terrorists who were planning to commit terror attacks against IDF troops operating in the Gaza Strip and against Israeli territory in the immediate future. The terrorists were operating inside a command and control center embedded within a compound that previously served as the ‘Yaffa’ School in Gaza City,» the IDF said in a statement on Telegram. It said that prior to the strike, steps had been taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians. On October 7, 2023, Israel was subjected to an unprecedented rocket attack from the Gaza Strip. In addition, fighters of Palestinian movement Hamas infiltrated the border areas, opened fire on the military and civilians and took hostages. Israeli authorities say that about 1,200 people were killed during the raid.
