Reporting Israeli Public Broadcaster Makan 33, Al-Quds Al-Arabi confirmed that the Israeli military plan would be activated in the event of a confrontation with Hamas on the coastal enclave.
The Israeli army wrote on Twitter that the strikes came in response to a rocket launched from Gaza towards Israel, pointing out that the rocket fell in an empty area, causing no casualties.
Hamas Spokesperson Abdel-Latif Al-Qanou wrote on Twitter:
“Gaza is being attacked by Israeli jets during Suhoor time on the fourth night of the holy month of Ramadan. Gaza, like all the Palestinian cities, will remain resilient against the Israeli occupation.”
