The Israeli military has launched airstrikes at “terror targets” in Gaza, responding to missile attacks coming from the Palestinian territory. This week marked an escalation of violence between Israel and Hamas.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported attacking targets in Gaza overnight, saying they belonged to the militant movement Hamas. The strikes were carried out to punish the Palestinian group – which is considered a terrorist organization by Israel – for launching missiles and incendiary balloons and kites at Israeli territory.
Earlier on Saturday, two rockets fired from Gaza were intercepted by Israel’s Iron Dome system. Another rocket reportedly slammed into a yard in southern Israel, causing damage to a house. A 58-year-old man was injured by shattered glass in the incident, local media said.
