Since last October 7, Israeli forces have been waging an intense air and ground war on the Gaza Strip, resulting in the death of more than 20,000 – most of them women and children – and the injury of more than 53,000, in addition to massive destruction of infrastructure and an unprecedented humanitarian disaster, according to the authorities. sector and the United Nations.
According to Anatolia News Agency, the Israeli army has targeted thousands of rockets throughout the Gaza Strip since the beginning of its war on October 7, but some of them did not explode due to a technical defect in most cases, according to Palestinian security sources.
The agency adds that the Palestinian resistance usually uses the explosive materials in these missiles to manufacture explosive devices and explosive missile warheads, especially since they contain large quantities of explosives that often exceed a ton per missile.
