Israël voert dodelijke luchtaanvallen uit op Gaza

March 18, 2025 - The Israeli military says it is carrying out “extensive strikes” in the Gaza Strip, with the Hamas-run health ministry reporting more than 400 Palestinians have been killed.

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said it was attacking what it called “terror targets” belonging to Hamas. The strikes are continuing and the IDF has issued fresh evacuation orders for many areas.

Mahmoud Abu Wafah, deputy interior minister in Gaza and the territory’s highest-ranking Hamas security official, is among the dead. Three other senior officials were later reported killed.

This is the largest wave of airstrikes in Gaza since a ceasefire began in January. Talks to extend it have failed to reach an agreement, the BBC said.
