The IAF had carried out a series of air strikes in the Gaza Strip overnight in response to the increasing number of attacks emanating from Gaza.
Two militants were wounded in the strikes, which hit a Hamas training camp, smuggling tunnels along Gaza’s border with Egypt, and other unpopulated areas, Hamas officials and witnesses said.
According to the IDF spokesman’s office, over 200 Grad missiles, Qassam rockets and mortar shells have been fired from the Gaza Strip into Israeli territory this year.
