GAZA/JERUSALEM—Air strikes on the Gaza Strip killed a Hamas weapons maker and several gunmen, the Israeli military said on Wednesday, as its air and ground offensive targeted the terrorists’ tunnel network beneath the besieged Palestinian enclave.

Gaza City, the Hamas terrorist group’s main stronghold in the territory, is encircled by Israeli forces. The military said troops have advanced to the heart of the densely-populated city while Hamas says its gunmen have inflicted heavy losses.
