"Prior to the attack on the tower, Israel's Defence Minister Israel Katz said on X that Israel's military activity in Gaza City is intensifying. He said the gates of hell are opening now in Gaza and warned that they will not be closed until Hamas accepts Israel's conditions for ending the war led by the release of all the hostages and disarmament."
Israeli forces destroyed a 12-storey Mushtaha Tower in a densely populated area of Gaza City after ordering residents to evacuate, alleging the building served as Hamas infrastructure and operational planning. Building management denied those claims and said the site was accessible only to displaced people. Several civilians were wounded and taken to al-Shifa Hospital for emergency treatment, and the shock wave of the strikes affected nearby makeshift tents, creating chaos. Israeli military activity in Gaza City has intensified, and officials warned that operations and strikes on multi-storey buildings will continue until Hamas meets Israeli conditions, including hostage release and disarmament.
