The Israel Defense Forces says its warplanes targeted a number of sites belonging to the Hamas terror group in Gaza.

The targets included a Hamas training camp; another base that housed a weapons production site, a concrete production plant and a training site; a site belonging to the terror group’s naval commandos; and a tunnel used by Hamas in southern Gaza.

“The strike deals a serious blow to Hamas’s ability to fortify and arm itself,” the IDF says. “The Hamas terror organization is responsible for the Gaza Strip and will pay the price for security violations against the State of Israel.”
