Israel attacks a fourth high-rise building in Gaza City. What's behind these army bombings?

The Israeli army bombed a skyscraper in Gaza City on Monday , the fourth in recent days, in an area surrounded by hundreds of displaced people's tents that were also affected, sources in the enclave confirmed to Efe.

"They said we only had half an hour to leave. I didn't take any belongings or clothes, just what I was wearing, and I left," Naji, a Gazan who has had to move several times due to Israeli attacks, told EFE in front of the building's rubble.

The young man doesn't understand why the towers are a military target. "Two families live in one house, but a tower has at least 40 to 80 people. We're civilians. Do you see us having weapons in our hands?" he asked.

In recent days, Israeli forces also destroyed the Al-Roya, Susi, and Mushtaha towers, all in Gaza City, where they are conducting a ground offensive to seize control. According to Israel, these buildings were used by the Islamist group Hamas as operations centers.

Naji added that the soldiers urged them to head south, toward Rafah. "The cheapest car transport now costs 1,200 shekels (about 300 euros). Most people don't have any money," he lamented.

Last Saturday, Israel announced the creation of a new "humanitarian zone" in the southern Gaza Strip. This area had already been expanded last year from the coastal area of ​​Mawasi to Khan Yunis, where hundreds of thousands of displaced people have been concentrated in a makeshift camp without electricity or drinking water.

Yemen's Houthi rebels claimed responsibility on Monday for launching drones at Israel's Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv and Ramon Airport in Eilat, a day after the latter was hit by an unmanned aircraft in an attack that caused no casualties.

Insurgent military spokesman Yahya Sarea said in a statement that this "high-quality military operation," which is taking place for the second day in a row, also targeted "a crucial target in Dimona" in southern Israel, though he did not provide further details.

"The operation successfully achieved its objectives," Sarea celebrated, releasing the statement hours after the Israeli Army announced it had intercepted three drones launched from Yemen into its territory.

Air raid sirens were triggered by these launches, according to the Israeli Army, which said two of the drones were intercepted in the Arava region and the third over the Negev Desert.
