The Flightradar24 website, which specialises in tracking aircraft routes, showed that a reconnaissance plane belonging to the Israeli occupation forces was allowed to enter Egyptian airspace yesterday, Tuesday, 10 October 2023. Zawia3 verified the plane’s details and found that it is an “IRON” intelligence aircraft, a “Gulfstream G550” model, belonging to the Israeli Air Force. The plane bears the name “Nachshon Oron” and belongs to the 122 “Nachshon” Squadron. The plane flew yesterday near Lake Bardawil in the Sinai Peninsula, off the coast of the occupied Palestinian territories, to continue gathering intelligence for Israeli air and ground operations in the Gaza Strip.
It is worth noting that Israeli occupation aircraft yesterday bombed the gate separating the Palestinian and Egyptian sides at the Rafah crossing for the third time, which led to the suspension of work at the crossing.
The bombing of the crossing gate comes after the Israeli occupation announced last Monday the imposition of a total siege on the Gaza Strip, including the closure of all crossings and the cutting off of electricity, water, food and energy supplies to the Strip.
This comes as the war between the Israeli occupation and the Palestinian movement Hamas continues, with the Israeli occupation’s retaliatory bombardment of the Gaza Strip continuing in response to the large and unprecedented attack launched by Hamas militants on towns inside the occupied Palestinian territories in the Gaza envelope.
