ALBAWABA - Following the latest Israeli airstrike in Al-Daraj neighborhood, which resulted in the killing of over 100 people, CNN revealed that the munition Israel used was manufactured by Boeing.
According to weapons experts, Israel used at least one precision-guided bomb developed in the United States during the attack, CNN reported.
CNN cited weapons expert Chris Cobb Smith to say that the GBU-39, made by Boeing, is a high-precision munition "designed to attack strategically important point targets" while causing little collateral damage.
Hundreds of Palestinians were targeted by Israeli forces as they were performing Fajr prayer in Al-Tabi’in school in Al-Daraj neighborhood in Gaza. The Gaza government media office said more than 100 citizens were killed and dozens injured on Saturday morning after the Israeli forces bombed the al-Tabi’in school.
We recovered at least 90 people who had been killed. Many of them are torn apart, many are still unidentified" Gaza Civil Defense Spokesperson Mahmoud Basal told CNN.
Al-Aqsa Flood operation against Israel
Hamas military group announced on Oct. 7 a military operation called "Al-Aqsa Flood" against Israel which is the biggest offensive in decades.
Palestinian fighters “infiltrated” Israel from the Gaza Strip and captured military bases and took hostages as photos and videos went viral online showing Hamas fighters on vehicles inside Israel and others paragliding into occupation territory.
In response, Israeli armed forces announced targeting Hamas positions inside the Gaza Strip. Thousands were killed, and dozens of thousands of others were injured in the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip.
The latest statistics by the Ministry of Health in Gaza revealed that the death toll from Israeli brutal pounding on the Gaza Strip since October 7 has soared to 39,790+ people, with more than 91,70+ injuries.
Since then, approximately 85% of Gazans have been displaced, all of whom are suffering from severe food insecurity, and the healthcare system has collapsed. Hundreds of thousands of people lack shelter, and aid trucks are entering the area at a lower rate than before the conflict began.
