Tensions between Israel and Palestine increase after Hamas rocket attacks
Mehdi’s hateful tweet against Israel comes at a time when tensions between the Jewish nation and Palestine have reached a peak. The atmosphere between the two countries is tense, especially after the rocket attack launched by Hamas targeting Israeli cities from Tuesday evening.
In response, Israel intensified its attacks on the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas inside the Gaza Strip. Israeli security forces carried out airstrikes targeting targets in Gaza in response to continued attacks against Israel by Hamas. During retaliation on Tuesday, an Israeli airstrike demolished a high-rise residential and office building controlled by Hamas.
At least 35 people died in Gaza and five in Israel in the worst airstrikes of the past several years.
Israel has deployed an Iron Dome air defense system to stop the rocket attacks that took place in Mangalwal, targeting Tel Aviv and central Israel. The Israeli Security Forces (IDF) released a video in which the Iron Dome can be seen destroying Palestinian rockets in the sky.
The violence is the result of weeks of ongoing tension in Jerusalem, which led to clashes between Israeli police and Palestinian protesters around the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex. The mosque has been constructed on 35 acres of land, known by Muslims as Haram al-Sharif or Holy Ibadatgah. It is also revered by the Jews as Temple Mount.
