Iraq – Iraqi armed factions announced, at dawn on Tuesday, that they had targeted the Israeli Ben Gurion Airport with drones.
A statement by the factions said: “Our fighters, using drones, targeted Ben Gurion Airport deep within the usurping Zionist entity, stressing that we will continue to destroy enemy strongholds, in completion of the second phase of operations to resist the occupation, to support our people in Gaza, and in response to the Zionist massacres against defenseless Palestinian civilians.”
The war in Gaza has entered its 158th day, as bombing continues on several areas in the Strip amid a famine that has become a reality.
According to the Israeli Ministry of Defense, the number of deaths among the army since October 7 has risen to 589.
On the Palestinian side, more than 31,000 people were killed and more than 72,500 others were injured, 72% of whom were children and women.
On the other hand, the Palestinian News Agency reported that the Israeli forces, on the first day of Ramadan, surrounded the fence adjacent to Al-Aqsa Mosque in the Lions Gate area with barbed wire.
According to the agency, “Israeli forces have imposed a strict siege on Al-Aqsa Mosque for five months and prevented entry to it. They have issued dozens of deportation orders against Jerusalemites, in order to prevent them from praying during the month of Ramadan.”
On Sunday evening, Israeli forces imposed restrictions and restrictions on Palestinian worshipers who were trying to enter Al-Aqsa Mosque to perform the first Tarawih prayer on the eve of the beginning of the month of Ramadan.
