The Israel Defense Forces says it struck a Palestinian Islamic Jihad observation position in the Gaza Strip a short while ago.

The IDF says the site was used by the terror group to guide a potential anti-tank guided missile attack against Israeli targets on the border.

The IDF also releases a clip showing the strike earlier today against an Islamic Jihad mortar launching position.
