The Israeli military has said Hamas still has the capability to launch rocket attacks against targets in Tel Aviv and occupied al-Quds, despite suffering significant losses since October.
In a statement on Tuesday, the Israeli military also claimed that it had either killed or detained some 14,000 members of the Palestinian resistance movement during the barbarous campaign in the besieged Gaza Strip ever since, Press TV reports.
“Hamas maintains the capability to attack troops in Gaza and launch rockets on Israel, including a long-range fire on Tel Aviv or Jerusalem,” the Israeli army said on its website, claiming that it has attacked around 37,000 Hamas targets in Gaza from the air, and more than 25,000 infrastructure sites and rocket launch locations.
The regime’s army estimated that Hamas “still has long-range missiles to bomb Tel Aviv and Jerusalem [al-Quds], and more than half of its members are still alive, and the army has not yet acted against three of its brigades.”
This is while Hamas has previously strongly dismissed similar claims by the Israeli army, stressing that Tel Aviv uses such “lies” to justify the bombing of civilians in the blockaded Palestinian enclave.
