IDF attacks Hamas terror sites in Gaza

The army said Israeli warplanes attacked “terror infrastructure,” including military and naval compounds belonging to Hamas.

The IDF struck several terrorist sites in the Gaza Strip early Friday morning after a Palestinian rocket hit a building in southern Israel the previous evening.

The army said Israeli warplanes attacked “terror infrastructure,” including military and naval compounds belonging to Hamas, the Islamist group that controls the territory.

There was no immediate retaliatory rocket fire from Gaza or reports of injuries on either side.

The rocket launched late Thursday hit a religious school in the Israeli border of Sderot.

The flare-up, which came after Israel this week closed Gaza’s offshore waters to fishermen in response to the launch of incendiary balloons, breaks a month-long lull.

A ceasefire between Israel and Hamas reached in May halted the worst bout of violence since a 2014 war.
