Turkey's Humanitarian Relief Foundation (IHH)'s office in Gaza was damaged by the airstrikes, according to the foundation's official. Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Mahmud es-Surafa said bombing near the office building damaged the windows and doors.Saturday's attacks were the largest since 2014 when the Israeli army launched a devastating war on the Gaza Strip, killing more than 2,000 Palestinians and injuring thousands. Earlier Saturday, the Israeli army said it had destroyed two underground tunnels in airstrikes in the Gaza Strip. Tension has been running high across the Gaza Strip amid protests demanding an end to the decades-long Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands and lifting an 11-year blockade, which has gutted the coastal enclave's economy and deprived its roughly 2 million inhabitants of basic commodities. Since the protests began in March, more than 130 people have been killed and thousands more injured by Israeli army fire.
