IDF strikes Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh's house
The Israeli military says it has bombed the residence of Hamas leader, Ismail Haniyeh in the Gaza Strip. In a statement, the Israeli Defense Forces said the house of Haniyeh, the head of Hamas’ political bureau, was used as a meeting point for plotting attacks against Israel. The war between Israel and Hamas erupted after the militant group killed some 1,200 people and seized around 240 captives in an Oct. 7 attack that shattered Israelis' sense of security. Israeli airstrikes have since killed more than 11,200 people, two-thirds of them women and minors, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry in Ramallah, which coordinates with the ministry branch in Hamas-ruled Gaza. Another 2,700 have been reported missing, with most believed to be buried under the rubble.
