Smoke from airstrike in Gaza Strip
The IAF launched airstrikes on the Palestinian Gaza Strip on Tuesday, the first such attack since a truce ended an eight-day cross-border war in November.
“Occupation planes bombarded an open area in northern Gaza, there were no wounded,” a statement from the Hamas Interior Ministry said. The IDF confirmed that it had launched airstrikes on a two terror targets in northern Gaza and recorded direct hits.
The airstrike followed the firing of a Palestinian projectile from Gaza which exploded in southern Israel’s Eshkol region on Tuesday. The explosion occurred in an open area, and did not cause any injuries.
