The military claims to have found a rocket launch pit near the largest fuel depot in Gaza.

On August 9th, Jinshi Data reported that the Israeli Defense Forces stated on August 8th local time that the military forces found a rocket launch pit along the ‘Philadelphia Corridor’ in the Gaza Strip on the 7th, which is only tens of meters away from the largest civilian fuel depot in the Gaza Strip. The statement claimed that this is another example of Palestinian armed organizations abusing civilian and humanitarian infrastructure. The Israeli military has removed the launch pit without damaging the fuel depot. The Palestinian side has not responded to this yet.
