The Palestinians claim an unknown target in the eastern Gaza Strip was bombed. Gaza's rescue and emergency services spokesman Adham Abu Salmiya announced there were no injuries.

 

The IDF Spokesperson's Unit said IAF jets bombed terror targets in the northern Gaza Strip. "All of our aircrafts returned safely to their bases. The strike is a response to rocket fire on southern communities."
