Drone Shows Airstrike Aftermath in Gaza | VOA News

Drone footage shows destruction of a residential building in Deir al-Balah in central Gaza caused by an Israeli airstrike on Monday. Gaza’s Health Ministry said Monday that 156 people had been killed in the past day. Nearby, in a crowded street market, hundreds of Palestinians were shopping for food and clothes. Israel signaled a new phase in its offensive in the Gaza Strip by announcing Monday it will be reducing the number of its soldiers in Gaza while pursuing more targeted operations against Hamas in the enclave. A statement by the Israel Defense Forces said the soldiers’ withdrawal is expected to “significantly alleviate economic burdens“ and allow the troops “to gather strength for upcoming activities in the next year, as the fighting will persist, and their services will still be needed.“ #Israel #Gaza #reels #videography #voanews » Subscribe to VOA News: » Watch more VOA News video: Voice of America (VOA) is the largest U.S. international broadcaster, providing news and information in more than 40 languages to an estimated weekly audience of 236.8 million people.
