Sources: Israel tried to kill man in Gaza
Palestinians in Gaza say IDF tried to bomb man on motorcycle, but no injuries were reported
Palestinian sources in the Gaza Strip said Wednesday that the IDF had attempted to kill a man riding a motorcycle east of Gaza City. No injuries were reported in the strike, and the identity of the man is unknown.
Organizations in Gaza have raised their level of alert after a number of Air Force strikes that took place this weekend in response to rocket fire towards the Negev.
Hamas operatives evacuated many of the group's bases and headquarters in Gaza, fearing additional bombings.
Air Force crafts bombed smuggling tunnels in the southern Gaza Strip over the weekend, hitting an Islamic Jihad training facility and other targets near Khan Younis.
The IDF released a statement saying the strikes were a response to the artillery fire towards Israel, which included four mortar shells containing phosphorous.
