Israeli fighter jets struck and destroyed rocket launchers in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis used by Hamas in an attack earlier today on central Israel, the military says.

The IDF says secondary explosions were seen following the strike, indicating that additional weapons were stored in the area.

Five rockets were launched from Gaza in the attack this morning, with impacts in Kfar Chabad, where two people were lightly injured, and Holon.

Separately, the IDF says the 215th Artillery Regiment shelled a rocket launcher used to fire five more rockets at Sderot an hour ago.
