Palestinian resistance group Islamic Jihad has pledged to strike cities deep inside Israel, following an Israeli deadly attack on Palestinian children in the Gaza Strip.

The Palestinian resistance organization said on Wednesday that it has entered a new phase of resistance and will launch new operations penetrating Israel.

The announcement was made following the recent deadly shelling of Gaza, where at least 10 Palestinians, including four children, were killed and dozens injured.

The Palestinians were killed after an Israeli tank fired shots at a home in the coastal sliver, medics reported on Tuesday.

The killing of Palestinian children drew UN fire with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon strongly condemning Tel Aviv for the deadly attack.

Israel regularly carries out attacks on Gaza, killing and injuring Palestinians. Tel Aviv launched a deadly war on the coastal enclave at the turn of 2009.
