Israel strikes Hamas outposts in Gaza in response to incendiary balloons

Israeli Air Force helicopters conduct strikes on two Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip, including an observation outpost near Deir el-Balah, the IDF says in a statement.

The outpost was evacuated minutes earlier and there are no casualties, according to Palestinian media.

The airstrikes are in response to explosive balloons sent from Gaza into Israel earlier today, the military adds.
