IOF warplanes blast Aqsa TV station headquarters

Israeli warplanes blasted the premises of the Aqsa TV station in the Gaza Strip at dawn Sunday in line with a series of devastating air raids on the Strip that started at noon Saturday.

The Aqsa TV, which did not go off the air, said that the warplanes fired a number of rockets at its headquarters west of Gaza city inflicting big damage but no casualties.


A station announcer said that the TV would continue to broadcast regardless of the destruction in a bid to unveil the “savagery of the Zionist occupation”.


A spokesman for the Israeli occupation forces has said that the air force had launched 170 air raids since the devastating aerial bombardment started until Saturday night.


The intensified air raids claimed the lives of 270 Palestinians and wounded more than 750 others tens of whom are in very critical conditions.


The spokesman said that the IOF warplanes also targeted tunnels used for smuggling from Egypt into the Strip.
