The Israeli Air Force struck more than 40 targets across the Gaza Strip in the past day, the military says.

The targets hit by fighter jets included various Hamas infrastructure, including buildings used to launch anti-tank missiles, as well as cells of gunmen, according to the IDF.

The IDF also says it struck sites near a rocket-launching position, used in yesterday’s attempted attack by Hamas on Tel Aviv. According to the IDF, the two rockets were fired from a route in Khan Younis, used to deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians.

Troops meanwhile continue to battle Hamas in southern Gaza’s Rafah and Khan Younis, and the Netzarim Corridor in the Strip’s center.
