Senior political leader's of Hamas house destroyed. Hamas weapons captured

Ismail Haniyeh's residence, which was used as terrorist infrastructure, was struck as IDF troops continue to operate in the Gaza Strip.

Overnight, IDF fighter jets struck the residence of Ismail Haniyeh, the Head of Hamas Political Bureau, which was used as terrorist infrastructure and often served as a meeting point for Hamas senior leaders to direct terror attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers.

During the takeover of the Shati camp, IDF troops located and destroyed a Hamas naval forces weapons cache, containing diving gear, explosive devices, and weapons.

IDF troops also struck terrorists and located weapons including explosive belts, explosive barrels, RPGs, anti-tank missiles, comms equipment, and intelligence documents.
Hamas is a designated terrorist group backed by Iran and that has governed the Gaza Strip since 2007.
Hamas began firing thousands of rockets on Saturday morning, striking targets as far away as Tel Aviv and the outskirts of Jerusalem, which rarely see any direct hits because of Israel's sophisticated Iron Dome missile defense system.

The unprecedented attack, which has killed at least 1400 people in Israel, Israel's Army Radio reported Monday. At least 4000 people have been injured, the Israeli Health Ministry said earlier.
More than 200 Israeli civilians, soldiers, and foreign nationals have also been taken hostage by Hamas.
Israel formally declared war on Hamas.
