Israeli operations in Gaza Strip ramped up; Hamas has lost control of parliament building
The parliament building of Hamas, which has been ruling the Gaza Strip after ousting the Palestinian Authority (PA), has been captured by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). IDF soldiers were also seen waving the Israeli flag in the parliament building in Gaza.
The elite Golani brigade of the Israel military captured the Hamas parliament building, the IDF said in a statement.
It may be noted that since the ground invasion on October 27, the IDF has been making steady progress in the Gaza Strip.
The IDF has charged Hamas of using major hospitals in northern Gaza as its command centers and asked civilians to shift to the southern part of the enclave.
The IDF has also said that it killed several senior Hamas operatives in Gaza including Khamis Dababash, former intelligence chief of the group.
IDF spokesperson Real Admiral Daniel Hagari in a statement on Monday said that the IDF has also killed Tahsin Maslam, Hamas’ commander of the combat assistance company, and Yakub Ashur, commander of Hamas’ anti-tank guided missile array in the group’s Khan Younis Brigade.
The IDF also said that it had killed a terrorist who had fired at the forces from the Al-Quds hospital in Gaza City.
