The Israeli army claims that the attack came following the firing of incendiary balloons from Gaza into the southern Israel towns that caused fire without any harm to people.
Gaza, with a population of 2 million, has been under a hermetic Israeli siege since 2006, when the Palestinian group Hamas won the democratic legislative elections in occupied Palestine. Since then, Israel has carried out numerous bombing campaigns and several major wars, that resulted in the death of thousands of people.
