During its recent operations in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli Air Force has confirmed the destruction of a radar system utilized by Hamas, the ruling Islamist group in the coastal enclave.

Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said this in a post on X, formerly Twitter.

“Fighter jets destroyed an advanced detection system developed by the Hamas terrorist organisation that was used to detect aircraft over the Gaza Strip,” the tweet read.

The IDF said that Hamas, over the years, had developed a high-quality camera network hidden in water tanks on rooftops throughout the Gaza Strip.

The military said the network was destroyed within minutes with attacks on various targets on Tuesday.
