26 Mosques In Gaza's Collapsed Gaza Strip Bombarded By Israel
The twenty-six mosques in the Gaza Strip have been destroyed as a result of being attacked by Israel since October 7, the Gaza-based Ministry of Religious Affairs and Waqf of Palestine said on Saturday local time. The ministry revealed dozens of mosques were badly damaged by Israeli airstrikes in most parts of the Palestinian enclave.Israelian warplanes also launched this ministry's central office, the ministry's radio Quran station and a church. The ministry urged "Islamic and international organizations to immediately intervene to stop aggression in Gaza and hold Israel accountable for their crimes against civilians, mosques and churches."The Gaza Strip conflict that was bombarded and blockaded Israel since October 7, began when Palestinian resistance group Hamas launched the Al-Aqsa Flood Operation. This military operation was a surprise attack by using rockets and infiltration of Hamas members into Israeli territory by land, sea and air.Hamas argued this attack in retaliation against the Al Aqsa Mosque in the occupied region of East Jerusalem and violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinians who continued to enlarge.
