Jerusalem:  Israel's action against Hamas terrorists hiding in Gaza continues. At least 42 Palestinians were killed and more than 150 injured in Israeli air strikes on the Nuseirat refugee camp in the Gaza Strip. Palestinian security sources said on Saturday that the Israeli army has been bombarding inhabited houses in Nuseirat with both aircraft and artillery since Friday morning.

The Gaza government's media office condemned the attacks, saying civilians, including children and women, were deliberately targeted, and called on the international community to pressure Israel to stop these actions against Gaza civilians.

11 people injured in Hezbollah rocket attack

Eleven people were injured in a Hezbollah rocket attack on the central Israeli city of Tira, shortly after Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei called for punishing Israel.

Iran-backed Hezbollah carried out this attack from Lebanon and a three-storey building in the city of Tira has been damaged. While two Israeli army soldiers are reported to have been killed in the ongoing battle with Hamas in southern Gaza. Thus, the number of Israeli soldiers killed in the battle that has been going on since October 7, 2023 has increased to 780. Iran's leader Khamenei had given a statement regarding the Israeli attack on Iran on October 26.

The US has warned that it will take action if Iran dares to attack Israel again. Meanwhile, Hezbollah has claimed that it also attacked Israel's military base in the city of Zeliyat and the airbase in Palmachim with missiles and drones, but Israel has not given information about the damage caused in it.

Succeeded in killing two junior commanders of Hezbollah

Earlier on Friday night, Israel carried out several air strikes in Lebanon. 52 people are reported to have been killed in these attacks. In these attacks, the Israeli army has succeeded in killing two junior commanders of Hezbollah in Lebanon. Both were commanders of various combat units in coastal areas.

In another incident, the captain of a Lebanese cargo ship has been kidnapped by unknown gunmen. It is not yet known which organisation and country the kidnappers belonged to. More than half of the 42 people killed in the latest attacks by Israel in Gaza are women and children. 150 people have also been injured in these attacks. More than 43 thousand people have been killed in the Israeli attacks on Gaza that have been going on for about 13 months.

Israel's Iron Beam will destroy enemy air targets in the blink of an eye

After Iron Dome, another shield has been added to Israel's defense system to open a front against enemy countries. Under this defense shield called Iron Beam, enemy missiles, drones, rockets and mortars can be destroyed in the blink of an eye using a highly powerful laser. It is also capable of attacking at the speed of light for a distance of several kilometers. Israel's Defense Ministry has said that its state-of-the-art laser defense system can start working within a year.

Israel's Defense Ministry said that the laser defense system, including the Iron Dome, will further strengthen the country's defense shield. This will also mark the beginning of a 'new era of warfare'. Iron Beam, costing more than $500 million, is capable of neutralizing missiles, drones, rockets and mortar attacks. Israel has developed this defense system at a time when it is fighting a war against Iran-backed Hezbollah and Hamas in Lebanon.
