Hamas warns Israel against continued Gaza airstrikes

Hamas spokesperson Sami Abu Zuhri has issued a statement warning Israel to cease attacking Gaza as reports continue of dozens of airstrikes targeting the Strip following a rocket strike on a southern Israeli town.

“We condemn this Israeli escalation of violence in the Gaza Strip and warns against continued. We emphasize that we will not sit on our hands if this escalation continues,” he says, according to a translation of his statement carried by Israel’s Channel 10 news.

The Palestinian Safa news website reports that Israeli planes have struck several sites in the Strip, but no injuries have been reported.
