GAZA, Nov 24 (KUNA) -- The police of Gaza Strip said Saturday the Israeli occupation forces used some 3,000 missiles and shells of various types in their recent eight-day aggression on the Strip.
The Israeli Air Force's Apache, F-15s and drones fired 1,500 Mk US-made guided missiles while the naval and grounded forces used a similar number of missiles, said Major Hazem Abu Murad, deputy director of explosive engineering department of Gaza police.
The explosive experts managed to defuse three bombs each of which weighs one ton, he said in a press release here.
