Residents of Gaza City woke to choking odors that spread across wide areas of the enclave during nighttime hours, Shehab Wire reported. The foul smells extended from eastern neighborhoods including Shuja'iyya, al-Daraj, and al-Tuffah to the western coastline and Beit Lahiya.
The source attributed the odor dispersion to Israeli aircraft dropping what it described as "foul bubbles" during night hours as a means to pollute Gaza's air.
