Israel
returns fire on Gaza following reports of IDF intrusion
Israel bombed two
targets in the Gaza Strip as a response to earlier fire from across the border,
according to the Israel Defense Forces. Palestinians had fired at Israel after
an IDF incursion reportedly took place on the Strip’s eastern border.
Israeli
"aircraft targeted two concealed rocket launchers in the northern Gaza
Strip,” the IDF stated.
The attack was in
response to rocket and mortar round being fired at Israel on Wednesday, AFP
quoted army spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Peter Lerner as saying.
"Launching
rockets against Israel and its civilians is a breach of our sovereignty. We
maintain the right to operate against those who are involved in terror,"
Lerner said.
There were no
reported casualties from any of the attacks.
