  • Israel strikes Hamas stronghold in Jabalia refugee camp

Tel Aviv, Dec 7 (IANS) Israel said on Thursday that Hamas has a stronghold in Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, the media reported.

Israeli media has reported that Israeli forces had captured a main Hamas outpost in the area, and found tunnels and weapons, the BBC reported.

A UN report from Wednesday indicated that "more than 100 people were killed, and many others injured, in heavy bombardments of multiple residential buildings in the Jabalia camp".
