The Israeli Air Force Destroys Islamic University of Gaza
The Israeli Air Force (IAF) launched a devastating attack on the Islamic University of Gaza, targeting what they claimed to be a training center for engineers involved in terrorist activities.
The Israel Defense Force (IDF) confirmed the bombing, stating that the university served as a crucial hub for Hamas, providing both political and military power. It was also identified as a training institution for the development and production of weapons, according to The Times of Israel.

The bombing was widely reported by The Wall Street Journal and NBC News, accompanied by a video showing massive plumes of smoke rising from the site of the former terrorist university. This attack was part of Israel’s military response to the ongoing Palestinian terrorist attacks, which have claimed the lives of over 1,200 Israelis and left thousands more injured.
Israel reported that approximately 1,500 Hamas terrorists were found dead within its borders, and the country’s military claimed to have targeted 2,294 Hamas locations in relentless airstrikes.
Hamas specifically targeted vulnerable populations in Israel, with more than 250 people brutally murdered at a music festival. In other parts of the country, Palestinian terrorists stormed Kibbutzes, executing entire families. Women and children were singled out, with reports confirming abductions, rapes, and killings. French journalist Margot Haddad confirmed reports of Hamas killing and beheading children and infants under 2 years old.
“That’s it, the information is out. It’s so macabre that no one wanted to reveal it until they had 100% confirmation. Infants and children under 2 years old were beheaded by Hamas in the Kibbutz of Kfar Aza. It is a horror, a massacre,” Haddad wrote. “For those asking for the source, there are multiple: Israeli army, internal intelligence service, and atrocious images which reached me and which I was able to cross-check. But the best source remains this: courageous journalists from the foreign press who were able to see/agreed to see with their own eyes the bodies in Kfar Aza.”
The terrorists reportedly set homes on fire to force people out of their safe rooms, where they were then gunned down by the Islamic terrorists.
“It’s not a war, it’s not a battlefield. It’s a massacre. You see the babies, the mother, the father, in their bedrooms, in their protection rooms, and how the terrorists killed them,” said IDF Major General Itai Veruv. “It’s something we used to imagine from our grandmothers, grandfathers in pogroms in Europe and other places.”
