The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage.

It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return.

Saturday's bombing came shortly after the Israeli Defense Forces dropped leaflets in Gaza City ordering Paleostinians to flee for safety.
''The Israeli army is operating with very intense force in your area and is determined to dismantle and defeat Hamas,'' it read, according to the

The IDF said the terror group had placed military infrastructure in the residential tower to attack its troops as the Jewish state prepares for its mid-September takeover of Gaza's largest city. The strike marks at least the sixth Hamas-controlled high-rise that has been destroyed.

Israel pounds Gaza City, killing 49 and displacing 6,000 in a single day
[GEO.TV] Israeli forces unleashed a wave of strikes on Gaza City on Saturday, killing at least 49 Palestinians and displacing more than 6,000 in just 24 hours, Al Jazeera reported, citing the Palestinian Civil Defence.
The bombardment targeted entire residential blocks, including UN schools converted into shelters, leaving families with nowhere safe to turn. The toll from Gaza City alone pushed the number of Palestinians killed across the Strip on Saturday to 62.
Despite repeated evacuation orders, some 900,000 people remain trapped in Gaza City. Reports indicate that conditions in al-Mawasi, the so-called ''humanitarian zone'' in southern Gaza, have become so unbearable that some displaced families have returned north to the devastated city.
250,000 displaced from Gaza City amid intensified assault
[GEO.TV] The Israeli military said Saturday that more than 250,000 people had fled Gaza City since it began intensifying operations there, as Palestinian officials reported many had been unable to evacuate south due to overcrowding.
On Saturday, Arabic-language army spokesman Avichay Adraee said on X that "more than a quarter of a million residents of Gaza City have moved out of the city for their own safety".
Gaza's civil defence agency, however, reported a much lower figure, saying fewer than 70,000 had managed to leave.
Media restrictions in Gaza and difficulties in accessing many areas mean AFP is unable to independently verify details provided by the military or the civil defence.
The Israeli military dropped leaflets Saturday urging residents in western districts to evacuate, as the civil defence reported continuous air strikes.
"The Israeli army is operating with very intense force in your area and is determined to dismantle and defeat Hamas," the leaflets read, urging people to evacuate south. "You have been warned."
