The military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad vows to renew the bombardment of Israeli cities with rockets following fresh Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip.
“In the face of the continuation of the assassinations and the bombing of apartments and safe houses, the Palestinian resistance will renew its missile bombardment of the occupied cities,” the Al-Quds Brigades says in a statement.
It adds that “the resistance has prepared itself for months of confrontation” with Israel.
