The IDF continued airstrikes in Gaza City on Sunday, focusing on the Daraj Tuffah neighborhood northeast of the city center. Footage from the area showed a massive explosion and extensive destruction. Palestinian sources said the targeted house belonged to the al-Nahla family and was located near a mosque.
The IDF Arabic-language spokesperson issued evacuation warnings for residents living in high-rise buildings. On Sunday, residents were instructed to leave the al-Ruwaia building and nearby tents at the Beirut Junction and Arab League Street. “The IDF will strike the building in the near future due to Hamas terror infrastructure inside or nearby,” the statement said. “For your safety, you are required to evacuate immediately south toward the humanitarian area in Mawasi, Khan Younis.”
