Israeli forces strike a mosque in the Gaza Strip, according to statements by the Israeli military and reporting from Gaza. The Israeli army says the Al-Muttaqin Mosque was used by Hamas for weapons storage. In Gaza City, AFP photos taken before the strike show large-scale displacement around tents housing Palestinians, and after the attack the images show a fire and a large plume of smoke rising above the area hit. Following the strike, Palestinians search through rubble and debris at the site. The accounts presented in the reporting focus on the Israeli military’s allegation that the mosque had an operational role for Hamas, and on the immediate aftermath visible in Gaza, including destruction and smoke. No independent verification of the Israeli claims is included in the provided excerpts, and the reports do not detail casualties or additional evidence. The incident is part of the wider conflict in Gaza amid ongoing air and ground operations.
