The Israeli forces’ tank has also targeted two of the Hamas’ observation posts, the spokesperson added.
The incident is part of the ongoing escalation of tensions between Israel and Palestine caused by the recent decision of the United States to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

Gaza lives terrified every day and every night because of the occupation, it’s a physical and psychological attack against civilians, and a shame for those who keep silent about these abuses.#GazaUnderAttack #SaveGaza pic.twitter.com/RbtVYNcjFr
