IDF: 35 airstrikes hit 7 Palestinian terror targets
IDF says it launched 35 airstrikes on seven military targets belonging to Palestinian terrorist groups in the Gaza Strip this afternoon in response to a barrage of rockets fired at Israel earlier in the day.
A statement from the IDF spokesperson says the strikes targeted weapons storage sites and administrative offices of Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
The strikes also destroyed what the army says was a Hamas “terror tunnel” that extended nearly a kilometer into Israeli and Egyptian territory.
