Newly released footage shows the demolition of the Al-Ghafri Tower in Gaza, carried out by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

According to reports, the IDF issued evacuation notices prior to the demolition, consistent with recent operations targeting buildings alleged to contain Hamas infrastructure. The strike is part of Israel’s broader campaign to dismantle militant networks amid the ongoing conflict in the region.

The destruction of the tower adds to a growing list of high-rise buildings brought down in Gaza as tensions between Israel and Hamas continue. Officials in Israel maintain that such actions are aimed at crippling militant capabilities, while critics argue the demolitions further worsen humanitarian conditions on the ground.
