TEL AVIV, November 14. /TASS/. The Israeli Air Force has attacked over 100 different targets in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip over the past 24 hours, the army press service reported.

According to its information, the strikes were carried out on military facilities, including weapons depots, rocket launchers aimed at Israel, command posts and other infrastructure.

Tensions flared up again in the Middle East on October 7, 2023, when Hamas militants staged a surprise attack on Israeli territory from Gaza, killing residents of Israeli border settlements and taking over 250 hostages, including women, children and the elderly. Hamas described its attack as retaliation for the aggressive actions taken by Israeli authorities against the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem’s Old City. In response, Israel declared a total blockade of the Gaza Strip, home to 2.3 million Palestinians before the crisis, launching air strikes on Gaza as well as some parts of Lebanon and Syria before starting a ground operation in the Palestinian enclave.
