There are unconfirmed reports from Israeli and Palestinian sources of fresh Israeli strikes in southern Gaza and possibly other parts of the Strip.
There is no immediate confirmation from the Israeli military.
According to Israel Radio, the bombings were carried out by Israeli jets.
The reports come hours after tanks hit targets in the northern Gaza Strip — reportedly a Hamas training site — in response to a rocket being fired at the Israeli city of Sderot.
There have been no reports of Palestinian injuries.
The rocket, which was fired from the Gaza Strip, struck a street in the city of Sderot — a few miles from Beit Hanoun — just before 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, police said, causing damage and sending three people to the hospital suffering from anxiety attacks.

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
