Israel Strikes Second Gaza City High-Rise in Two Days, Citing Hamas Use

The military says the tower housed surveillance posts with explosives planted nearby to track its troops.

Overview

  • Witnesses identified the latest target as the 15‑storey Sussi Tower, with video showing the building collapsing after the strike.
  • The IDF said Hamas used the site for intelligence gathering and observation of Israeli forces and reported multiple explosive devices near the structure.
  • The military stated it took steps to reduce civilian harm before the attack, without detailing the measures.
  • Residents were urged earlier to evacuate Gaza City for the al‑Mawasi area as Israel prepares what it calls precise strikes on Hamas infrastructure in the city.
  • Casualties from the strike were not immediately known, and Friday’s separate strike on the Mushtaha Tower likewise had no confirmed toll.
