Islam Times - Israeli warplanes set off sonic booms over Gaza Strip

Islam Times - Israeli F16 fighter jets have set off sonic booms over the Gaza Strip following the bombardment of several areas in the blockaded coastal enclave two days earlier.

The Israeli regime carried out the sonic boom attacks on Gaza City on Wednesday.

On Monday night, Israeli warplanes launched at least three air strikes on northern Gaza, injuring several Palestinians.

The Israeli military frequently bombs the Gaza Strip, saying the actions are being conducted for defensive purposes. However, disproportionate force is always used, in violation of international law, and civilians are often killed or injured.

Gaza has been blockaded since 2007, which is a situation that has caused a decline in the standard of living, unprecedented levels of unemployment, and unrelenting poverty.
