The early Saturday raids on unspecified targets in Gaza came hours after Tel Aviv claimed that a total of five rockets fired from the coastal enclave had hit southern occupied Palestinian territories.
Israeli media said three rockets were exploded out of five rockets fired from Gaza on Friday night.
There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage from the other two rockets that hit an open area near the city of Sderot.
The Israeli military frequently bombs the Gaza Strip. The disproportionate force is always used in violation of international law, and civilians are often killed or injured.
In early July 2014, Israel waged a war on the Gaza Strip. The 50-day offensive ended on August 26 with a truce that took effect after indirect negotiations in the Egyptian capital Cairo. Nearly 2,200 Palestinians, including 577 children, were killed in Israel’s onslaught. Over 11,100 others – including 3,374 children, 2,088 women and 410 elderly people – were also injured.
