The Israel Defense Forces accuses the Hamas terror group of attacking troops working to open up a humanitarian corridor for Palestinians to evacuate from northern Gaza to its south.
Earlier today, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee announced that between 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. the Salah a-Din road would be open for Palestinians to evacuate to southern Gaza.
The IDF says Hamas took advantage of the situation, and launched mortars and anti-tank guided missiles at troops working to open the road.
It says Hamas did so “in order to prevent [the road’s] opening for the movement of residents of the Gaza Strip.”
