On Thursday, the Israeli army carried out intense airstrikes on the Nusseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip. Strategic experts noted that the Nusseirat camp holds military significance for Hamas and its armed wing, which explains Israel's recent escalation of operations in the area. In recent days, the Israeli army has focused its military strikes on the Nusseirat camp, resulting in hundreds of casualties among the residents and displaced individuals.
Since the beginning of the war in Gaza, the camp has faced a series of attacks and has been a site of limited confrontations between Israeli army forces and armed factions, the fiercest of which was the military operation that led to the release of four Israeli hostages. Nusseirat is the largest camp in the Gaza Strip in terms of population and area, hosting the largest gathering of Palestinian refugees who were forced to flee from their villages and cities in 1948. It represents the southern gateway to Gaza City and is very close to the Netzarim military axis, established by the Israeli army recently.
