JERUSALEM

The Israeli military said Tuesday it captured several government institutions run by Hamas in Gaza City, including the parliament, the government building and police headquarters.

“Israeli military forces raided government institutions run by Hamas in Sheikh Ajleen and Al-Rimal Sheikh Ajleen and Al-Rimal,” it said in a statement. “These institutions are used for military purposes by Hamas.”

There was no comment from the Palestinian resistance group.

Israel has been carrying out relentless air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip -- including on hospitals, residences and houses of worship -- since Hamas launched a cross-border attack Oct. 7.

The number of deaths from Israeli attacks has surpassed 11,200, including nearly 8,000 children and women, the Media Office in Gaza said Sunday.

The Israeli death toll is nearly 1,200, according to official figures.
